There is confusion in the jungle when the animals wake up one morning and realise that something very strange has happened ... everyone looks rather odd! They decide to put aside their differences and work together to solve the mystery.

A Jumble in the Jungle is a charming and colourful rhyming tale of how the animals of the jungle relate to each other's differences and the consequences of being intolerant towards others.

Narrated in a light-hearted and humorous tone, and accompanied by 16 vibrant full-colour pencil illustrations, A Jumble in the Jungle touches gently on the universal themes of multiculturalism, diversity and inclusion while satisfying the young child's inherent love of rhyme, rhythm and fun.

While sure to delight the imagination of children from very young bedtime listeners to intrepid early readers, A Jumble in the Jungle also serves as a unique classroom resource for early poetry and art studies and social teachings around tolerance, kindness and respect.

First published in 2006 by Penguin Random House (Struik) in the 'Rainbow Nation' of South Africa, A Jumble in the Jungle is being republished by CosyCat Books in Australia in 2022 to help guide our youngest readers on the importance of tolerance in an increasingly diverse society.
