Meet the National Animals is a playful and humorous look at the
animals all around the world who represent their country. Why do
they represent the particular country and what is so special or
symbolic about them? Featuring over 35 amazing animals, from the
mystical Scottish Unicorn to China's much-loved Giant Panda and the
wonderful, but extinct, Dodo from Mauritius. The witty text brings
each animal to life and celebrates their quirks and
characteristics. Includes a playful, charming narrative along the
bottom of each spread, which sees Brown Bear gradually bringing all
the animals together as they travel the world, celebrating each
country as they go. Filled with fascinating facts about each animal
and country, the text also touches gently on conservation issues
related to each animal and their habitat. The illustrations inject
warmth and humour into the narrative, making the animals the stars
of their respective countries!

oceanlife around the globe. Learn about ocean homes and who lives
where, big creatures (whales and whale sharks), little creatures
(baby animals to zooplankton), incredible journeys, sea weather,

she will be a great guide for young readers, perhaps inspiring them

A subversive and hilarious spin on the well-loved fairy tale. The
three little wolves erect first a solid brick house. The big bad
pig comes along and when huffing and puffing fails to work, he uses
a sledgehammer to bring the house down. Next they build a home of
concrete: The pig demolishes it with his pneumatic drill. The three
little wolves choose an even stronger design next time round: They
erect a house, made of steel, barbed wire, armor plates and video
entry system, but the pig finds a way to demolish it too. It is
only when the wolves construct a rather fragile house made of
cherry blossoms, daffodils, pink roses, and marigolds that the pig
has a change of heart ... A great read for children who enjoyed The
Wolf's Story by Toby Forward. Kids aged 5 and up will enjoy this
hilarious, subversive and brilliant read aloud picture book. Eugene
Trivizas's text for The Three Little Wolves and the Big Bad Pig is
perfectly complemented by Helen Oxenbury's watercolour
illustrations. Eugene Trivizas has written over 100 books and is
the winner of more than twenty national and international prizes
and awards. His work has been adapted for stage, screen and radio.

Wonderland, published by Walker Books, won the 2001 Kate Greenaway

COUNTRYFILE'S BEST NATURE BOOKS OF 2021PRAISE FOR BY ASH, OAK AND

riddle that might explain why their kind are fading from the Wild
World. When you're only one-hand high, it's a journey filled with
both danger and delight: golden leaves, shiny conkers and the

winter. They have friendship, good sense and humour on their side,
but will it be enough to secure a future for the Hidden Folk? Or
will they need to go further, and find a way to work with the most
unreliable of creatures ... humans? A tale of disappearing
wilderness that couldn't be more relevant in today's environmental
crisis, brought to life for children by three tiny, funny, eternal
beings - the hidden folk. From acclaimed nature writer and literary
fiction novelist, Melissa Harrison, whose work has been shortlisted
