In this uplifting picture book about spring, follow two children
and their father through their backyard as they discover all the
different ways nature wakes up from its long winter sleep. Spot the
busy creatures and plants as the tale unfolds, then learn about how
each responds to the increasing daylight and warmth that usher in
the season. Co-authors Sean Taylor (picture book author) and Alex
Morss (ecologist, journalist, and educator) offer an inviting
introduction to the science behind spring. The yard is bright,
birds are singing, the bees are buzzing and there are tadpoles in
the pond! What is all the commotion about? In each colourful scene,
the family discovers a different sign of spring - a bird collecting
twigs for its nest, a fox snuggling her cubs, a caterpillar
feasting on leaves... After the story, annotated illustrations
explain the spring behaviours of various plants and animals.
Inspire an appreciation for the natural world in this joyous
exploration of spring.
The electrifying sequel to Wilbur Smith's new series for the next
generation - starring teen protagonists Ralph and Robyn Ballantyne.
In the wild Lebombo Mountains of South Africa, Ralph and Robyn are
on the run from the nefarious Josef Gerhard. His beastly man-made
predasaurs have unleashed a deadly virus and only the Ballantynes
have the evidence to prove it. They need to regroup and plan their
next move if they want to stop him before it's too late and find a
cure for the virus. But deep in the forest, dangers lurk; poachers
are circling, and Gerhard has a brand-new creation he wants to show
off, if he can lure the Ballantynes to its lair... Can they outrun
him in time to expose his monstrous crimes? And more importantly
will they make it out of the serpent's lair alive? Get ready for
more predasaurs, more betrayals and more action in the thrilling
sequel to PREY ZONE!
Teach your children about our feathered friends with this fun and
educational book. Five birds - a flamingo, owl, hummingbird,
albatross and pelican - are explored through rhyme, pictures and
pull-out cards to construct into 3D figures. With two spreads
dedicated to each bird, adults will be able to read the short
playful rhyme on each spread to children and look at the bright
illustrations to teach them about their habits and environment.
Children will then be able to pop out the card birds from the
perforated pages contained in a pocket at the back of the book and
create 3D figures simply by folding and adding a few dabs of glue.

'That is the way of the largest creature on earth. That is the
whale's way.' The humpback whales journey through polar seas,
diving, spouting and leaping. As winter comes they swim through
treacherous waters towards the warmer climate of the equator. Will
they escape the hunters and guide baby whale to safety? Telling the
story of the life cycle of the whale in a simple narrative, this is
a beautifully illustrated book with timeless appeal.
In this cozy bedtime story, follow a child and his grandma through
a winter landscape to explore how the Earth goes to sleep for
winter. Spot the sleeping animals as the tale unfolds, then learn
about their hibernation habits from the information pages at the
end. Co-authors Sean Taylor (picture book author) and Alex Morss
(ecologist, journalist, and educator) offer a gentle introduction
to the concept of hibernation. In the frosty, quiet forest, the
snow blankets the ground and the trees have shed their leaves.
Where have all the animals gone? Are they asleep too? In each
cutaway scene, see what the child cannot - that underground below
his feet are dens with sleeping creatures, and within the hollow
trunks of trees, animals are nesting. After the story, annotated
illustrations explain the hibernation facts for each animal and
what they will do when they wake up for spring. Cozy up as you
expand your and your child's knowledge of the natural world.
