Bridget is a champion belcher, travelling the world, winning competitions and proving she’s the best burper on the planet. But, one day, she discovers she has lost her most treasured possession: a mouldy piece of toast that started her belching career! How will she get it back? Continuing the Crazy Stories series, Belcher Bridget retells the parable of the lost coin in rhyme, and is ideal for children aged 5 to 8, with Alexander Brown's fun, crazy illustrations.

As in the other Crazy Stories, Belcher Bridget lets children explore the biblical truth of a story of Jesus through a new tale, told in rhyme. At the back of the book, the appropriate Bible text appears, along with some activities that parents and carers can do with their children to explore the theme further.
