  • Additional information

A funny and reassuring story about friendship, tempers, and making amends – and the perfect parental toolkit to help deal with tantrums.

Meet Oscar, a boy who loses everything – his football boots, his scooter, even his clothes. Now meet Hugo, an elephant who never forgets anything! So when they find each other in the park they become inseparable. But one day, Oscar loses something very important – his temper – which means he might just lose his best friend as well.

From the brilliant Jan Fearnley, creator of the bestselling Mr Wolf’s Pancakes.
