This handsome hardback journal features ten new mini stories about
everyone's favourite fox, reimagined by 'Reynard the Fox' author
Anne Louise Avery. Told by Reynard to his three little cubs on a
moonlit spring night in the east of Flanders, each of the two-page
stories is based on old medieval French vulpine tales, drawn from
Marie de France's version of Aesop, 'Ysopet', Guillaume Tardif's
'Les Apologues et Fables de Laurens Valle' and 'Le Roman de
Renart'. Some tell of Reynard's antics, others of the exploits of
his noble and mythic ancestors. Foxes tumble into dyer's vats,
steal twists of eels from unsuspecting fisherman, lounge around
Black Sea ports and are transformed into eternal and glittering
stars. With a stylish ribbon marker, foiled spine and high-quality
ruled pages, this notebook is a stationery-lover's delight as well
as the perfect gift for fans of Avery's captivating story-telling
and all those entranced by this enduring animal fable.
Oh, Armadillo! is a hilarious tale exploring the endlessly humorous
mishaps of an Armadillo who wants to host the most amazing party.
Armadillo sets out to please the jungle animals with classic party
treats and games, but everything turns out a little peculiar...
like a sponge cake made of sponges and an actual musical chair!
Children will roar with laughter at the silly scenarios and very
funny mishaps that Armadillo creates whilst planning his party. He
misinterprets the most popular party games, like Pass the Parcel,
in the funniest ways. Oh, Armadillo! combines laugh-out-loud humour
with teaching a gentle lesson that there's nothing wrong with
thinking differently. The jungle animals declare that Armadillo's
party is wrong because everything is a little unusual, but what the
animals learn is that being creative and inventive can lead to fun
and laughter! This bold, bright, hilarious picture book is brought
to life by talented illustrator Rob Starling. Oh, Armadillo! will
provide hours of laughs for little readers, whilst reminding us
that thinking differently is good and can lead to the most fun of
all!
