Synopses

Kipper

Kipper’s world is described as a place where anything can happen. He is presented as a classic picture character with strong child appeal.

Kippers Birthday

Kipper’s birthday is tomorrow, so he bakes a cake and writes invitations for his friends. When he hands them out on his birthday morning, the message causes confusion, before things turn out well when his friends arrive with a special present.

Kippers Beach Ball

Kipper finds a plastic surprise inside a box of cornflakes, which turns out to be a very large beach ball. He and Tiger play with it by the sea until it pops, and the story ends with the idea that more treasure can be found in another box.

Hide Me Kipper

A squeaky mouse runs across the page and hides in the fold in the middle of the book. Kipper tries to help keep the mouse safe from a cat.

Kipper's New Pet

Pig wants a pet for his birthday, so Kipper buys him a hamster called Roly. Kipper becomes attached to Roly while playing with him and misses the party, finding it hard to give the hamster away.

One Year With Kipper

Kipper gets a new camera and uses it to record adventures with Tiger throughout the year. They play in the snow, catch tadpoles, pick blackberries and collect conkers, and at Christmas Kipper makes Tiger a memory book with a photo for each month.

Kippers Toy Box

Kipper counts his favourite toys but worries when something has been nibbling a hole in his toy box. Looking closely at the pictures reveals the cause: a little mouse.

Kippers Snowy Day

When snow begins to fall, Kipper rushes outside to enjoy it. With Tiger, he makes snow angels, has snowball fights and builds a snow-dog.

Kippers Little Friends

Kipper and Arthur talk about baby animals and their names, from owlet to froglet and hoglet. They wonder what a baby dog is called and invite the reader to join in.

Kipper's Monster

Kipper and Tiger go camping in the woods with a torch and a storybook. As it gets darker, shadows and noises make them increasingly scared, and the story asks whether they can learn to overcome their fears.
