LAUGHING LIKE A LEMUR! Book band: Lime - Ideal for ages 5+
Snuggle up together and enjoy this collection of charming and
engaging stories written by Gabby Dawnay and reccomended especially
for five-year-olds by literacy experts. The stories in A Treasury
of Tales for Five-Year-Olds are arranged in order of complexity so
that the child listening or reading will increase their confidence
as they make their way through the book. Most children may not be
able to read independently by the age of five, but they can start
to prepare for this by building a foundation of literacy skills.
For example, many can recognise letters, understand that print
carries a message and know that sentences are read from left to
right. Some may even be attempting to read. This beautiful book
contains original and inclusive stories about animals, dragons,
nature, vehicles, music and more, as well as reimagined fairytales
from around the world. From tales of pirate adventures to
heartwarming animal stories, there will be something for every
young reader in this rich collection. The luxurious package with
sparkling foil and ribbon marker will make this a must-have gift
for the birthday of any five-year-old and Heidi Griffiths' charming
and engaging illustrations will mean that the child will cherish
this book even as they grow older.
An exquisite book that evokes a child's first experience of nature.
From beachcombing to stargazing, from watching squirrels, ducks and
worms to making berry crumble or a winter bird feast, this is a
remarkable book - part poetry, part scrapbook of recipes, facts and
fragments - and a glorious reminder that the natural world is on
our doorstep waiting to be discovered. Mark Hearld's pictures
beautifully reproduce the colours of the seasons on woodfree paper,
and Nicola Davies' lyrical words capture the simple loveliness that
is everywhere, if only we can look.
A collection of comedic and dramatic monologues with 50 monologues
for guys and 50 monologues for girls.

Silly Verse for Kids - a hilarious collection of silly poems by
Spike Milligan! A collection of the absurd, ridiculous, sublime and
characteristically anarchic verse from the brilliant Spike
Milligan. With his very own illustrations, this collection, which
includes the famous On the Ning Nang Nong will make you laugh from
the bottom of your belly - just like Spike did. The legendary and
iconic figure, Spike Milligan was born at Ahmednagar in India in
1918. He received his first education in a tent in the Hyderabad
Sindh desert and graduated from there, through a series of Roman
Catholic schools in India and England, to the Lewisham Polytechnic.
He then plunged into the world of Show Business, seduced by his
first stage appearance, at the age of eight, in the nativity play
of his Poona convent school. He began his career as a band
musician, but became famous as a humorous scriptwriter and actor in
both films and broadcasting. He was the creator, principal writer
and performer of the infamous Goon Show. Spike received an honorary
CBE in 1992 and Knighthood in 2000. He died in 2002. Other
children's books by Spike Milligan: Bald Twit Lion; Badjelly the
Witch; Dip the Puppy; Sir Nobonk and the Terrible Dreadful Awful
Naughty Nasty Dragon; A Children's Treasury of Milligan: Classic
Stories and Poems; The Magical World of Milligan
Weary of academic study, an eminent scholar turns to magic and
makes a deal with the Devil. Mephistopheles will serve him and give
him whatever he wants, but after twenty-four years Faustus must
keep his side of the bargain. This edition contains a detailed
introductory section that puts the play in its historical context,
in-depth textual notes, extracts from key critical works and
exam-style questions.
