Abigail Wheatley (Author)

This book 'A Masque Of Days, From The Last Essays Of Elia' was
originally published in 1901. The masque was a courtly feast
involving dance, theatre, music and song popular in sixteenth
century Europe and this work is a charming allegorical tale in
which the guests at such a masque are The Days of the year, whose
invitations are brought to them by twelve foot-pages called The
Hours. Guests include Pay Day, who arrives late, Rainy Day dressed
in wet stockings, and Wedding Day, who wears his marriage finery.
Many of the earliest children's books, particularly those dating
back to the 1900s and before, are now extremely scarce and
increasingly expensive. Pook Press are working to republish these
classic works in affordable, high quality, colour editions, using
the original text and artwork so these works can delight another
generation of children. About the Illustrator: Walter Crane
(1845-1915) was one of the earliest contributors to children's
literature and one of the most influential illustrators in the
development of children's colour picture books. Crane began working
for Edmund Evans in 1864 producing bright, colourful books which
revolutionised the type of children's books available. His Arts and
Crafts illustrations came to typify children's books for decades to
come.

Sail a toy ship across the ocean... Build an igloo... Ollie and
Harry Ferguson did it-and you can too! Starting with a list of 500
"adventures", the Scottish brothers set out to live life to its
fullest. They've photographed the sea floor, launched a plastic toy
into space, mummified fish and tracked wild animals; they've gone
magnet fishing and camping, sailed aboard a deep-sea diving vessel,
caught lobsters, made a bathtub in the woods, crossed the ocean in
a toy boat, gone on a meteorite hunt, made a megapult, raised
chickens, built an outdoor shelter, sailed a kite boat, built a
wildlife reserve, went on a mountain hike and have flown trained
falcons. With striking colour photographs and featuring
step-by-step directions for some of the boys' best adventures, this
book provides guidance that will inspire families to marvellous
adventures of their own.
