The Robbery
$26.99
The plan was very simple, Thief 1, Thief 2 and Thief 3 would dig a tunnel and rob a bank at night. They even took an excavation course with the best teachers. As it turns out, the thieves have a lot of unexpected skills, but digging tunnels to banks is not one of them. Their tunnels do lead to some very interesting places though…
Sometimes the real treasures are the people you meet along the way.
"Preposterous fun for the savvy young reader or read-aloud audience."
Horn Book Review
"Silly situations abound making this a great readaloud with downright kid-friendly art."
Betsy Bird - SLJ - A fuse 8 production
"The minimal text complements the beguiling, colourful, rather cartoon-like double page spreads, which visually tell the simple charming tale of a trio of harmless miscreants bent on mischief than mayhem"
Magpies Magazine
"a shining example of how simple illustrative techniques can convey great emotion and movement. "

"The book is sure to encourage lots of discussion about the wrongs of bank robbery, about friendship, about innate skills and about the important things of life."
