Big Blub was as old as the mud and would wait until the sun went in before gliding out of his hiding place to snack on unexpected tadpoles. Benji Davies has created a beautiful story which he has supported with glorious illustrations that certainly fit into his recognisable style. There is a lovely message in the story that just because you might be slower at achieving some things, you can still get there if you keep trying.The other tadpoles warn the little tadpole about Big Blub; the big fish who will eat you up if you don't swim away from him fast enough! It’s the perfect story to reassure any child worrying they’ll always be at the back, and Davies handles light and shadow brilliantly to create and control the drama. It's set in a pond where Tad is worried about the Big Blub that lurks at the bottom in the dark waters. There are also some lovely Science links with nature, lifecycles, habitats and growth as well as the PSHE focus on how we are all unique and different. Once she has escaped and is safely sat on a rock she realises she has lost her tail, she was now a frog.

Tad has to be courageous when he is left alone - could be used in discussion with children to talk about how they think Tad feels, how they would feel in Tad's shoes and talk about times in their lives where they have had to be courageous. The last page is my absolute favourite, but I couldn’t really take a picture without ruining the ending. The images alone, will provide plenty of discussion and exploration of life below the surface of the pond. Beautifully and boldly illustrated throughout, Davies has mastered another tale about growing up, embracing change and taking chances!Still, it is her courage that saves her in the end, allowing her to figure out what happened to her siblings after all. As the tadbrothers and tadsisters change and begin to become frogs, Tad changes a little slower until the she is only one left. This is an encouraging book for children who feel small or left behind and suggests that they too will come into their own with time. Eventually, Tad's tail shrinks and falls off, leaving her with little choice but to emerge from the pond.

Benji really has thought of everything, there is even a spread with numbers counting down from ten which children will love counting along with as the tension of the story rises.
