Hippity-hop on board for a read-aloud adventure that will make heads spin and tongues trip faster than a speeding snowball.

Lickety-Split is a side-splitting smorgasbord of sights and sounds unlike any other book. Tag along as our hero trips the rhyme fantastic and spins a tongue-twisting tall tale for his heroine. He ziggity-zags, clickity-clacks, skippity-skips and zippity-zooms from one adventure to the next.

Will he defeat the Viking warrior? Tame the dragon? Knock one out of the park? Will our heroine believe him if he does?

This verbal and visual feast is a celebration of language and imagination that will have kids thumpity-thumping for more.
