Barbara Throws a Wobbler

From the creator of The Bumblebear and Billy and the Beast comes a hilarious story of one big bad mood - and how to make it go away…

Shireen’s latest gem ought to come on prescription The Observer’s Best Children’s Books of 2021.

Barbara is having one of those days. She has a sock problem and there’s a strange pea. Then, all of a sudden, Barbara’s Wobbler is out of control!

But what happens when a bad mood like this comes along? Barbara has a lot to learn about the ways of wobblers in this laugh-out-loud story from Nadia Shireen.

A brilliantly funny and sensitive way to understand and deal with tantrums.

These are the most brilliant, beautiful and silly picture-books out there at the moment. Little doorways of joy. Caitlin Moran
