Wolf Erlbruch: The Fearsome Five

The Fearsome Five introduces an unlikely gang of outcasts — a rat, a toad, a spider, a bat and a maggot — who see themselves as the most frightening creatures around. But as they gather together and share their fears, they discover that perhaps they’re not so terrifying after all. With Erlbruch’s distinctive illustrations and gentle humour, this quirky tale turns the idea of “scary” on its head, offering children a story about self-acceptance, friendship and seeing beauty in the overlooked.
