“Plastic bags don’t belong in the sea!”

As read by Tom Hardy on Cbeebies Bedtime Stories

Everybody has a taste for Stanley – and the other ocean creatures

just keep mistaking him for a delicious treat – but

this is no ordinary jellyfish.

Most jellyfish have dangly-gangly tentacles, but Stanley has two

handles…

Other jellyfish have a magical glow, but Stanley has stripes…

Because Stanley (spoiler alert) is a plastic

bag!

A beautifully illustrated picture book with a powerful message

about plastic pollution from environmental expert Sarah Roberts.

The perfect gift to introduce children to the issues of plastic

in our oceans

Brilliant for teachers to read to children in class when introducing

them to pollution issues
