Lottie Potter Wants An Otter

Book Synopsis

A feel-good, rhyming picture book, packed full of outrageously funny otters from multi-award-winning author, Jeanne Willis, with hilarious illustrations by Leonie Lord.

When little Lottie Potter goes to Trotter’s Otter shop to buy a new pet, she certainly doesn’t expect to find quite so many kinds. There are spotty otters, potty otters, snotty otters and tangled-in-a-knotty otters – to name but a few! But what will she do when the otter she chooses turns out to be a rotter?

A side-splittingly funny, fast-paced rhyming romp that’s a joy to read out loud – again and again!

Our Review Panel says...

This was read aloud to Beanstalk staff at a recent conference and there were people crying with laughter! A wonderfully funny rhyming book filled with plenty of tongue twisters which children and adults will love trying to read out loud together. Practice also makes perfect with this and often children will refine their technique first before their reading helper. A great book for adults as well as it shows you how many words rhyme with ‘otter’!
