How To Find Gold from picture book creator Viviane Schwarz is a fun tale of two wonderful friends enjoying an exciting, imaginative adventure.
Anna has a great idea – to find gold. Crocodile warns his friend that this could be dangerous and difficult. Far from scared off, Anna is spurred on by such warnings, and so they begin the search.
In this lively, dialogue led tale Crocodile has plenty of incredibly useful tips. First they must practise the right face, nobody must know what they are up to. He also needs to make sure Anna is strong enough. Why? Because gold is heavy of course!
After drawing a boat they set off on a seafaring adventure which leads to two stunning wordless pages as they battle storms and monsters to find… GOLD!
But what should they do with all this wonderful treasure? Crocodile has the answer, of course!
Schwarz’s illustrations are full of energy and detail, capturing her characters’ personalities just so. How To Find Gold is a wonderfully quirky read – full of adventure, fun and giggles.
