Crash! Bang! Wallop!

Three noisy friends are making a riot, till they learn to be calm, relax and be quiet

Summary

The perfect book to calm down lively toddlers before bedtime.

Join Crash, Bang and Wallop - three boisterous characters - as they crash through the story. They love making lots of noise! But soon they meet three quieter characters who help them see that there's fun to be had in the quiet moments, too.

This joyful book is a celebration of noise . . . and quiet. The playful characters, bouncy rhyming text and vibrant artwork make this picture book a real treat to enjoy together.

The book also includes a bonus mindfulness activity at the back of the book to help encourage quieter moments in the day.
