Trouble Coming! by Christine Harris

'Trouble coming,' croaked the eagle. 'I can see it!' "Trouble coming," growled the bob-cat, 'I can hear it!' "Trouble coming," sniffed the otter, 'I can smell it!' 'There is panic in the swamp. A mother alligator raises her head above the water to see what all the fuss is about. A fork of lightning has started a great fire and all the animals are running away. But to their astonishment, the alligator runs in the opposite direction. She has a nest of eggs and must save her babies. When the babies hatch, she leads them down under the water where they will stay submerged until the trouble is gone. A very vivid sense of danger builds in this exciting rhythmic text and keeps you in suspense until the rain falls and...' trouble going...trouble going...trouble gone. Hamish Blakely's dramatic illustrations are full of atmosphere and beautifully convey the exotic wildlife of the Florida, Everglades where the story is set.
Christine Harris has published two picture books. She is married to the author Peter Harris of Bottomly fame. Hamish Blakely is a new illustrator, living and working in Wimbledon, London.
