Description

Hendrix has found the perfect new friend. There's just one problem... his new friend doesn't want to come home!

When Hendrix discovers Lenny the lizard hiding in the garden, he can't wait to welcome him into the family.

He imagines all the wonderful adventures they could share, from trips to the beach and cosy beds to delicious meals and even a magnificent lizard kingdom!

But there's one little problem. Lenny doesn't seem very happy about any of it.

With a little help from his best friend Rocket, Hendrix begins to discover that being a good friend isn't always about what you want. Sometimes it's about listening, understanding and recognising what makes others happy.

Filled with colourful illustrations, gentle humour and a heartwarming message, Hendrix and Rocket: Lizard Land is a delightful picture book for children aged 3–8 that celebrates friendship, empathy and the wonders of the natural world.

Perfect for:

  • Children who love dogs, lizards and animal adventures

  • Preschool and early primary classrooms
  • Curious young nature lovers
  • Gifts for children aged 3–8

Plus, discover fascinating facts about the real-life blue-tongue lizard featured in the story!

A charming adventure that reminds children that true friendship means understanding and respecting the needs of others, even when they're different from our own.

Join Hendrix, Rocket and Lenny for a delightful garden adventure full of surprises, laughter and friendship!
