Based on the hit ABC KIDS TV show!
It’s time to play cricket! As the grown-ups try to get Rusty out, Bluey learns that cricket is more than just a game…
Bluey is a six-year-old blue heeler pup who loves to play. Along with her friends and family, Bluey enjoys exploring the world and using her imagination to turn everyday life into an amazing adventure.
Alongside her chart-topping ABC Kids series, Bluey and her community star in a host of fantastic picture books and board books that keep the fun and excitement going off-screen for eager fans. There’s even a brand-new Bluey theme park called Bluey’s World coming to Brisbane in 2024!
Dive into any Bluey picture book and it’s easy to see why the series has become such a phenomenon. It’s always fun-filled, engaging and accessible, with a whole community of relatable characters – who also happen to be dogs, bringing the cute factor in spades! Every story is nuanced, with layers of learning and wisdom that make these books not just entertaining but also moving, inspiring and educational. There’s something for parents and older readers in every book too.
This gorgeous summer instalment in the bestselling, record-breaking, universally adored series is all about cricket and the lessons it has to teach us. Rusty is the star of the story – and the cricket pitch! Through his love of cricket, and with support from his family, we learn the value of dedication and determination, but also the importance of looking after others and how to be a good sport.
This new Bluey hardback is ideal summer reading for kids aged 2+, and their families. Bluey: Cricket is the perfect way to share your love of cricket with the little ones in your life, and help them understand the true meaning of the game. This will obviously appeal to existing fans of the sport, but if you’ve got a kid who doesn’t ‘get’ cricket, this is sure to change their mind! Have a bat and wicket handy – I can see this book inspiring its fair share of backyard games…
