Meet THE ZUGGLER

The Zuggler is Timothy’s quirky, magical guide during his family’s big move from the U.K. to the UAE. Always showing up when Timothy needs support, this mysterious creature helps him face challenges, adapt to his new life, and embrace Dubai’s wonders. With The Zuggler by his side, Timothy learns to grow and thrive in his new home.

A Friend in Every Moment

As Timothy embarks on his new life in the UAE, he feels overwhelmed by the changes. That’s when The Zuggler, a creature like no other, steps in. The Zuggler isn’t just a guide—he’s a friend who understands Timothy’s fears and anxieties, offering him comfort in the most unexpected ways. Whether it’s helping Tim make new friends, making Timothy laugh during tough times, or showing him the beauty in his new surroundings, The Zuggler helps him see the world through fresh eyes.

I absolutely love this book. My class of year 2s are obsessed as well. They loved the story, loved the connections to Dubai, loved spotting the Zuggler on each page and I loved how it can be used for so many different lessons. It’s a very well written story, great rhyming and just fantastic!
