Meet Poppy - if you can find her!
Poppy loves bugs, and can usually be found carrying on conversations with ladybirds or sitting outside among the brightly coloured wildflowers . but good luck spotting her indoors and around people! She's a master of camouflage, always finding a way to blend into her surroundings.
But when a very special bug lands on her grandma's birthday cake, Poppy can't resist popping out to see it. Soon the rest of the guests notice the beautiful dragonfly, and Poppy too. Maybe it's OK to stand out sometimes, just like the vibrant wildflowers and shimmering insects Poppy loves.
This poetic and evocative story celebrates the shy and introverted kids among us, as well as the other small creatures to be found if we look closely enough.
The beach is full of things to spot. From shimmering seashells,
buckets and spades to creatures scurrying in the breaking waves,
little observers will love discovering the wonder in the world
around them. Beautifully illustrated in paper collage by
bestselling children's book creator, Clare Beaton, each page
invites the reader to spot the wading birds, boats, sandcastles,
seals and other wildlife at the beach. Contains an interactive
spotting activity game!
Why is a flamingo pink? Can a parrot talk? Is a bald eagle really
bald? This follow-up to the hugely successful The Big Book of Bugs,
The Big Book of Beasts and The Big Book of the Blue answers these
questions and many more. It opens with introductory spreads
explaining how to recognize different bird's eggs, the bird family
tree, why different species of birds have different beaks and
feathers, and why some birds migrate and travel vast distances
every year. Subsequent spreads, illustrated with various habitats,
are dedicated to specific varieties of bird, including
hummingbirds, peacocks, flamingos, bald eagles, secretary birds,
albatrosses and red-crowned cranes. Some will teach children how to
spot different birds within a specific variety, for example how to
differentiate the American robin from the European robin. Others
explore bird habitats, for example showing how birds adapt to live
in cities. Finally, the book invites young bird spotters to protect
birds where they live and make their gardens bird friendly. This is
a big, beautiful book to look at again and again.
This charming concertina book follows the journey of a little ship
on a voyage across the sea. Folding out to nearly 2.5 metres,
children can look at all the different things the ship sees on its
way, as it chugs past fishing vessels, a tanker and a humongous
cruise ship, alongside leaping dolphins and shoals of flying fish,
through the high, choppy waves of a lightning storm, and finally
reaching its own little harbour. Playful text guides the journey,
providing fun shared experience and conversation starter for
parents and young children. The reverse side of the concertina
features spot illustrations picked out from the main scene, with a
more expansive information about each element, from ships to ocean
life.
Discover a magical world of nature on your doorstep. Charming
rhyming verse introduces 6 mindful moments - including a squirrel
burying a nut, and a rainbow forming on a rainy day - to the
youngest readers. A fabulous introduction for first readers, from
the team that created international bestseller Slow Down.
