Summary: "Set in a land of custard trampolines and chocolate submarines, James Thorp's The Weasel Puffin Unicorn Baboon Pig Lobster Race is an eccentric and exciting children's story that tells the tale of an unforgettable race. With clever, imaginative language and dream-like illustrations, the book takes the reader on an exuberant adventure, following fiercely competitive creatures all rather inclined to cheat in a myriad of amusing ways. A lone competitor stays true to his morals, while the other beasts swindle and hoodwink one another as they scamper over the finish line, giving the story a surprise twist ending with a meaningful lesson." -- Provided by publisher.
