Skye the Puffling - Lynne Rickards

This charming board book for babies and toddlers follows Skye, a cheeky baby puffin who tumbles out of her parents’ burrow and accidentally lands on a passing gannet’s back, beginning an unexpected adventure across the Firth of Forth. Written in Lynne Rickards’ gentle, rhythmic rhyme and brought to life with dynamic watercolour illustrations of Scottish sea life by Jon Mitchell, little readers can meet puffins, gannets and other coastal creatures as Skye searches for her way home. With its sturdy pages, friendly characters and a very cute puffling at its heart, it’s a lovely first nature story to share with young children.
