Another "Blue Nose" picture book from the creator of Kipper and Wibbly Pig. Hatz and Ploo are finding it difficult to ride their bikes on the sandy beach, until Hatz comes up with a plan involving bokonuts. Readership level: 3+.

This is the third picture book about Ploo and his friends set on the wonderful Blue Nose Island, a fluffy cloud to the left of the sun where all the creatures have Blue Noses. Ploo and Hatz are riding their bikes on the sandy beach, but it is hard work. When a bokonut falls from the tree, Hatz is struck with an idea. An idea involving bikes and bokonuts, and soon he has made a new invention--a bokobike, perfect for sandy beaches.
