Part of a range of best-selling, award-winning children's picture books by Margaret Wild. Ages 3-5. there was a crooked man who lived with a crooked cat and a crooked mouse all together in a little crooked house. their happy existence is unsettled by a noisy train that passes close by each day, shaking the house and its inhabitants: "Shucka-shucka, shucka-shucka, shucka-shucka!" Literally refusing to stand still for this, the crooked house does the unthinkable! this charming picture book, with its whimsical image of a moving house and the repeated refrain of "Yippee-yi-yay!," encourages young readers to interact. Energetic watercolours by Jonathan Bentley team with a wonderful story, in which the crooked man and his friends finally find a place to call home.
