Children often fear monsters in the closet or under the bed. But
what happens when monsters aren't a problem, alligators are
instead? There's a Gator Under My Bed is a delightful story that
addresses just that: children's bedtime fears, in the form of an
alligator, named Fred. Complete with an activity, this fast paced
book will entertain, ease bedtime fears, and become a nighttime
favorite. Meet Fred. 'There's a Gator Under My Bed'.
A lyrical, richly illustrated storybook about community and family
- set against the backdrop of a seaside fishing village. If you
keep walking over the hills and across the fields, you will come to
the edge, where the land meets the sea. And on this edge lies a
village. This is my home. A young boy watches the grown-ups in his
village go about their work. Everyone is busy: the blacksmith, the
boat-builder, the baker. But most important of all, he thinks, are
the fishermen who bring in the catch. The boy's father is a baker,
but he wants to be a daring fishermen when he grows up, brave
enough to sail through stormy seas. He asks his father, "Have you
ever been to sea?" An atmospheric look at a traditional way of
life, and a timeless reminder that everyone is important, no matter
how seemingly small their role.

With a nasty bug sweeping the globe, Santa's workshop is forced to
close and all his elves placed into lockdown. Without access to the
high tech toy-making machines in the workshop, there's no way the
elves can possibly make all the toys they need this Christmas, and
they fall into despair. Could this be the year that the magic of
Christmas is lost forever? The newest, youngest and smallest elf on
record refuses to accept this thought and wants nothing more than
to make Christmas magic for all the children on Santa's list.
Inspired by her own bow-tying skills, she starts making gifts from
whatever she can find. But her parents, convinced that the only way
to make toys today is by pushing buttons on a machine, tell her
it's pointless. The smallest elf stumbles upon an old workshop in
her back garden, full of tools and perfectly matched to her size.
The workshop was her Gran's - a small elf too - and inspired, she
quickly learns how to make toys out of wool, wood and other things
with the help of her animal friends. Just when she thinks she's
cracked it, she learns from Santa that the only way he can make the
sleigh fly is to make EVERY SINGLE PRESENT on the list. And she's
way, way off. Luckily the other small elves in the village have
been watching this saga unfold. Keen to save Christmas too, they
join her in making every last toy in one epic final push on
Christmas Eve Eve - ready for Santa to fill his sleigh and take the
toys out to the world. As the sleigh takes to the sky we realise
that Mikka has done it! Saved Christmas for all - It's astounding,
the things you can do when you're small.
