Stop the Ball!

This boisterous board book starts with a wayward shot on goal then one animal
after another chases the runaway ball until it lands in the pool with a big splash and
a twist ending

Duck kicks the ball but it flies over the net—where has it gone? Boom into the tree,
splat in the puddle, dooga dooga under the bench. Duck runs, Owl runs, Spider runs,
Dog runs—they all run after the ball. Until kersplash it lands in the pool. Uh-oh, there’s
a crocodile in the water. It’s too late to stop the ball! Or is it? Susanne Strasser’s
snowballing animal stories that children love are bestsellers in multiple languages. This
funny, energetic game takes an unexpected turn after the ball lands in the pool—and
ends with a goal, of course.
