Bookroo's summary
Doodle the alligator wakes up feeling bitey, and Tumpty the elephant's backside becomes an irresistible target. Chaos ensues as Tumpty retaliates, leaving everyone upset. Can their friendship survive the turmoil, or will Doodle's bitey nature cause more trouble? Discover how apologies and understanding might heal the rift in this charming tale of friendship and forgiveness.
From the publisher
The inspired Polly Dunbar wraps up her series about Tilly and Friends with two beguiling new adventures.
When Doodle the alligator is feeling bitey, the backside of Tumpty the elephant looks very tempting. But now Tumpty is sore — in more ways than one — and promptly stamps on Doodle’s tail. No wonder everyone’s upset! Luckily, the friends agree to apologize, and all is well — at least until Doodle starts to feel bitey again. . . .
