This ingenious book with colourful illustrations throughout takes everyday things - such as ink blots, fingerprints, paint drips, screwed up pieces of paper and even coffee stains - and encourages children to transform them into extraordinary things. Ink splats become aliens or bonkers birds, a piece of paper becomes an iceberg filled with penguins, and a page of palm prints becomes a herd of elephants. Children can let their imaginations run riot and, with only basic drawing skills, they can create unique masterpieces.

For fans of The Book with No Pictures and Press Here, this hilarious interactive picture book lets kids in on the joke. “A brilliantly playful book that experiments with the physical boundaries of the book as an object, encouraging interaction and imagination.” —Oliver Jeffers, bestselling illustrator of The Day the Crayons Quit See what happens when flipping the page of this gleeful picture book gets you—SPLAT!—a pie in the face, followed by—SQUISH!—an insect sandwich, and—SPLASH!—a deluge of water balloons. Bright colors and appealing visual gags add up to a perfect mess—no cleanup necessary.

Talking Splat: Communicating About Our Hidden Disabilities is for people with chronic illnesses, mental health diagnoses, and other invisible struggles. Our conditions are often a "moving target," meaning we never know how we're going to feel from one day to the next. The one certainty is that every day, we feel like we've been run over by something. Splat is an innovative way to communicate what that "something" is while also managing others' expectations, alleviating feelings of failure and guilt, assuring better self-care, and enabling us to establish actual routines ... at last! Written by a professional comedian and disabilities awareness trainer who lives with osteoarthritis and fibromyalgia, Talking Splat is a fast, fun, inspiring read that, if you let it, will make your life worlds better and give you your own way to make the world better for us all.
