The Deadlefizz Books
by Simon Hill
Beautiful, glossy books, vibrant images, drastic dramas and lovely rhymes.
Deadlefizz is a bold, boisterous, young dinosaur who does things without considering the consequences.
Deadlefizz Dinosaur’s Disastrous Decision;
Deadlefizz, the dinosaur, is often told
that he is really, rather bold.
He jumps off here, he dives off there.
He never really has a care.
One day he jumps and wishes he hadn’t.
Who will rescue him?
Deadlefizz Dinosaur’s Drastic Drama;
Deadlefizz runs as fast as he can:
He doesn’t have much of a plan.
He runs & runs and runs some more;
Skips and his feet don’t touch the floor.
One day he trips and falls on T-REX!
How will he escape?
There should be something magical about reading a story and these have vibrant images and rhymes to bounce you along!
There are many activities at the back to satisfy young, enquiring minds.

The News
Latest book for 0-4 year olds
My latest book is ‘Molly Doesn’t Like to walk’. This is the story of a puppy who would rather have a good sleep somewhere cosy than go out for a walk. However, when she does go out she realises there are so many amazing things to do! The book has repetition which young children love and lovely vibrant images to keep them entranced.
Check out www.deadlefizz.com to see a few pages of the story and use the BUY buttons to purchase if you like what you see.
Violet and the Panther at last!
I have now completed Violet and the Panther. It only took a year 🙂
Violet is feeling sorry for herself as she kicks through autumn leaves in the wood.
Why me?
Why am I always wrong?
Why don’t my ‘friends’ include me in their games?
WHY? WHY? WHY?
She is shocked when she hears a voice say…
“I don’t like your why’s much”
The panther is casually lying on a tree branch and they strike up a conversation about the right kind of why’s to be asking.
The trouble is that Violet is never quite sure whether she’s going to be eaten or not!
Can she talk her way out of this tricky situation and will she live long enough to learn to ask the right kind of why’s?

Here’s something to explore if you are home with the kids for a while.

Brilliant family at Castle Fraser Library
Fabulous venue at Castle Fraser on Saturday. We climbed up many flights of spiral stairs to get to the library. These guys are avid readers and had read a couple of my books before I even started the event.
