Buckle up and jump on board for the funniest, most explosive picture book of the year - you'll want to read it again and again-o!

Join two intrepid explorers as they take a train-o, jump on a plane-o, ride a Great Dane-o (down the lane-o) on their way to look at the volcano. Nothing could possibly go wrong - could it?!

A hilariously anarchic rhyming story from multi-award-winning author Andy Stanton.
