Kipper first appeared on four legs in the Mick Inkpen timeless picture book The Blue Balloon. The picture book, Kipper, first published in 1991 made him the star of the show and he's been going from strength to strength ever since. Kipper's world is a world where anything can happen and he has enormous child appeal. He is a classic picture character now, loved by children the world over in the same way that Thomas the Tank or Peter Rabbit are loved. Kipper delivers invitations to his birthday party. But there is some confusion about the day - which is today and which is tomorrow? Happily, Kipper's friends finally arrive. The "Big Books" are designed especially for reading in schools.
