Uh-Oh Niko! by Chris Chatterton

Meet Niko! Here to help little ones with daily routines.

From bestselling author/illustrator Chris Chatterton, Uh-Oh Niko is a new board book series about a little bear who sometimes gets things a little wrong. Whatever happens, he always tries again and learns new skills along the way.

“Having poured my heart into crafting the Uh-Oh, Niko series, I am bursting with excitement to share the first two books with the world.

It’s been an incredible journey to bring Niko’s adventures to life on the page and a huge thank you has to go to the team at Ladybird for all their help and hard work.”

“What makes these books super special is their interactive nature, designed specifically to engage and captivate toddlers through its repetitive text, sliders to push and flaps to lift. I can’t wait for the young readers to play with and immerse themselves in Niko’s world and his charming ‘UH-OH’ moments, while learning that making mistakes is ok and part of the adventure.”

Chris was part of Ladybird and Puffin’s Picture Books Showcase in early 2024, where he showed of his new board book series. To read more, head to The Bookseller here.
