Official World Book Day GBP1 book From Michael Morpurgo, co-founder
of the charity Farms for City Children, this charming story for
early readers evokes the wonder, muck and magic of a week on the
farm. The first of many Farm Tales to come, it is a window onto the
countryside, and the way its landscape and animals can leave an
impression on a child's heart forever. 'You're farmers for a week,
so you'll be busy. There'll be no time to miss home. You'll eat
like kings and queens, sleep like logs, and you'll hardly be out of
your wellies, except in bed.' When a young boy goes from the city
to stay on the farm, he discovers a world he never knew existed - a
world of vegetable gardens, ducks and geese, where the sheep graze
in the fields, where apples and pears grow in the orchard. He also
meets Jemima the pig: she smells and she slobbers, she breaks out
of her pen to steal potatoes, and she's the undisputed queen of the
farm. Soon, he's hiding acorns in his pockets to feed to her every
time he sees her. But then, Jemima starts to feel ill. Could she
have eaten too many acorns? Or does this queen of a pig have a
secret...?
From monster-slewing heroes to ancient accounts of gods and
goddesses from all around the world, such as Thor and Odin, the
beautifully illustrated follow-up to Atlas of Monsters and Ghosts
is a fun and fascinating journey through the realms of mythology,
enthralling with tales of creation, legendary fables, gods and
beasts. Accompanied by engaging text by Marzia Accatino, Laura
Brenella's captivating illustrations take you on a voyage of
discovery all over the globe. Guided by the centaur Chiron, young
readers will vault across the world to learn about the powers and
weaknesses of the gods, the adventures of the great heroes, the
best ways to befriend strange creatures, and the most useful tricks
for escaping terrible monsters. From Norse legends of valiant
Valkyries preparing for battle to the powers of Ancient Egypt's
gods and goddesses, this is an exciting introduction to the world
of gods, goddesses and heroes for young kids. About Lonely Planet

Aimed at 3 to 5 year olds, this title introduces the alphabet and basic numbers and counting through the theme of African wildlife and nature.
Fully illustrated throughout, it is a 'first' book of the alphabet and as such features several single words to represent each letter from A to Z, and wildlife themes to introduce counting. Colourful scenes of the African bushveld, the coast, night-time and river environment reinforce words encountered earlier in the title and help young children to "test" their knowledge while learning about the environment.
Simple activities follow in which children can identify the animals they have seen, match animals to their shapes, identify animal hides, and learn comparisons.
