Toby is a big boy, but he still struggles with some things. When his mummy is too busy with his baby sister, he ends up with bad buttons, wrong wellies, and loo paper everywhere. This touching tale captures the difficulties of growing up and learning to be independent, and has a heart-warming ending that the whole family will love.

Toby, a big boy now, has grown up and become much bigger than his baby sister, Iris. He can pour his own milk, read his own bedtime stories, and even reach the snacks high on the just for mummies shelf. However, Toby still faces challenges that come with his age. Sometimes, even when you're big, tricky things can still be difficult.

When Mummy is too busy with Iris to help Toby, he ends up with bad buttons, wrong wellies, and loo paper everywhere! This frustrates him, and he may become cross.

A touching tale about learning to be an older brother, "Toby's Big Adventure" is brought to life by Christine Pym's beautifully soft artwork. This charming, relatable story captures the difficulties of growing up and learning to be independent, even when some things are still hard to do. It's the perfect book for little children learning to share their parents' attention with new siblings, and it has a heart-warming ending that the whole family will love.

Through Toby's experiences, children will learn that growing up is a journey filled with challenges and obstacles, but with the support of family and friends, they can overcome anything. It's a message of resilience, determination, and love that will resonate with children and their families for years to come.
