About the Book:

Albert is so desperate to get a pet, he'll take anything - a cat, a dog, giraffe... he's not fussy, so he's super excited when Dad finally brings a pet home. There's just one problem: it's a potato. Potatoes can't do anything a proper pet does... can they?

Branford Boase Award shortlisted Josh Lacey and World Illustration Award shortlisted Momoko Abe bring warmth and humour in perfect measure to this story, perfect for any child who's desperate for a pet!

The playdough contains flour, salt, coconut oil, thyme, cream of tartar, food colouring and glycerine.

Our playdough is handmade using food grade, toxic-free ingredients. All our playdough is independently tested by a lab to UKCA EN17-3 to ensure that no chemicals come into contact with your child’s skin.

Whilst we work hard to produce consistent colours in our playdough, there could be slight colour variations due to the dyes used and colours may vary slightly between batches.  

The playdough will be sent in a tin.
