Tumpkin and Crew's Christmas

It was a freezing winter on the Mureș River in Arad. Tumpkin the little goblin and his crew had worked all autumn with pumpkins, and now they were shivering by the stove!

So KIA the teacher-dog with glasses says: "I'll take you to the Tropic of Crab! It's warm there!"

Little Lamb number 7 hides behind Tumpkin: "Baaa... crabs?! I'm scared crabs will bite my nose!"

But KIA explains gently: "They are not real crabs, sweetie! The Tropics are two imaginary lines, brother and brother, close to the warm belly of the Earth called the Equator! Tropic of Crab on top, Tropic of Capricorn at the bottom - brothers guarding the warmth!"

And so the great escape begins! From Brrr... to the Tropics!

Join Tumpkin the goblin, PUFU who takes notes in his "Our Notes!" notebook, KIA the teacher, and the little lambs in colorful swimsuits as they fly to Saadani Beach in Tanzania - the only beach where giraffes walk on the sand!

There, under the blazing Zenith sun (when the sun is right above your head and you have no shadow!), they meet the giant guard of the Tropic - a giraffe with sunglasses and a tiny crab on her head!

What your child will learn with a giggle:

• What the Tropic of Crab and Capricorn really are (two brothers, not biting crabs!)
• What ZENITH means - the sun like a hat of light right above you!
• Why we are cold in Romania in December while it's hot at the Tropics
• Courage: even the scared little lamb can become a hero

Perfect for:
Ages 4-9 Funny geography for kids Bedtime story with real lessons Kids who love Pufu, Kia, lambs, and giraffes!
