*AUDIO ENHANCED EDITION WITH READ-ALOUD AUDIO, MUSIC, AND TEXT HIGHLIGHTING*


Shifty McGifty and Slippery Sam are the world’s most useless burglars. When their master plan for a robbery goes hopelessly wrong again, they discover that crime doesn’t pay but cupcakes certainly do!


Tracey Corderoy’s accomplished rhyme trips off the tongue and makes the message that honesty is the best policy as light and fluffy as a Masterchef’s souffle! This funny, quirky story, deliciously dished up by debut artist, Steven Lenton, is full of depth of detail and colour, which little ones will pore over time and time again – and the two robber dogs are adorable comic characters! A real treat – especially for dog-lovers everywhere – young and old.


“Corderoy’s rich, rhyming text is a pleasure to read aloud and the ending got a big laugh in my house.” - The Telegraph


“Corderoy’s unobtrusive, let-me-tell-you-a-story rhymes allow Lenton, a British animator making his debut, to take center stage with cheerily frenetic images that look like freeze frames from a cartoon … Lenton works on a single plane but sidesteps staginess by playing with the possibilities of horizontal and vertical space; he’s as adept at depicting an angry mob of zoo animals chasing Shifty and Sam after a botched caper as he is crafting a precarious tower of delicately decorated cupcakes.” - Publishers Weekly


“The rhyming couplets demand enthusiastic participation, and the illustrations are as light and fluffy as a good sponge … slips down a treat.” - The Times


*This special edition of Shifty McGifty and Slippery Sam comes with read-aloud audio and text highlighting.*
