Jam is for Eating!

A sweet and quirky picture book about a bat named Benny, his brilliant batch of jam and all sorts of sticky situations.

Benny has made the best jam ever and his friends love it. One problem: none of them seem to want to eat it . . .

When Benny the bat rolls out his jam laden trolley loaded with the best batch he has ever made he is disappointed by his friends’ reactions to his sweet treat. Each and every one of Benny’s friends seems to have other (sometimes ingenious) uses for Benny’s jam. But to Benny’s annoyance, none of them involve eating it!

A unique picture book jam-packed with laughs on every spread.
