‘This captivating series of adventures is ideal for those who love whimsical humour’ Guardian, Best Children’s Books of the Year

Written by Carnegie and Costa Award-winning author Sally Gardner and beautifully illustrated throughout by Greenaway-shortlisted artist Chris Mould, Pernickety Boo is the unforgettable story of a very unusual umbrella.

'Hello,' said the umbrella.

'Gosh,' said the boy. The umbrella's handle was carved in the shape of a dog’s head, with a very long snout and a shiny nose and ears that flopped back. 'You can talk.'

'I suppose I can,' said the umbrella.

'Do you have a name?' asked the boy.

'No,' said the umbrella. 'Do I need a name?'

'Yes,' said the small boy. 'You need one for someone to let you in at the front door, and another name to be let out the back door.'

Brought to life by a careless sorcerer, Pernickety Boo is a well-educated umbrella with unexplored magical powers – and after he is left behind on the London Underground by his forgetful creator, Pernickety must find an owner: someone who will truly love him.

So when Pernickety meets young Sylvie Moonshine and is welcomed into her home, he thinks that all of his prayers have been answered. But there are plenty of other people who are also interested in the magical umbrella, and who threaten to separate Pernickety from his beloved Sylvie, unless he can find a way to stop them.

Perfect for fans of A Bear Called Paddington, The Velveteen Rabbit, and Winnie-the-Pooh, this instant classic is a book for the whole family to share.

Not sure yet?
Only have had these for 24 hours but also purchased a couple other chew toys from Amazon as well and all were delivered at the same time. Point being that my #60 silver lab was trading off between all of them and after 2 hours only you can see little shards of plastic sticking up from these chews. Not sure how long these will last before having to throw them away but they are pretty nice and feel heavy and durable. So many of these companies claim they are “indestructible” but all 4 I purchased have little plastic pieces sticking up already. Even my #14 Shih Tzu enjoyed trying to chew these and it kept her busy even though they are for larger dogs.

Golden approved
My golden retriever’s really enjoy these chew toys. They are pretty durable and last awhile. They are hard plastic but they do get rough edges after they’ve been chewed in for awhile
