From critically acclaimed author-illustrator Peter Carnavas comes a gentle breeze of a picture book with themes of mindfulness, observation, and being present in the natural world. Mary was a quiet girl. She thought quiet thoughts, stepped quiet steps, and whispered quiet words. Mary knows how to savor the small things. Wonder is everywhere: in the rustle of leaves, in the sigh of a sleeping dog, in the wingbeats of the birds who visit her upcycled feeders. But Mary's family couldn't be more different. Amidst the sound of blow-dryers, blenders, lawnmowers, and her brother's trombone, Mary goes almost unnoticed. It isn't until her family starts searching the neighborhood for her that they begin to see the world through her eyes. A Quiet Girl invites young readers (and the noisy adults in their lives) to appreciate the thousand little pleasures that surround us-if only we would notice them.

In her newest hilarious endeavour, Olivia embarks upon a quest for identity and individuality.

"A lilting Seussian singsong, with wonderful, surprising rhymes, and little readers and their grown-ups will have a great time combining their voices and giggling through the proceedings." -Kirkus Reviews, Starred Monkey On The Run "The silly antics of the little monkey provide forward momentum, but the details in each illustration kept calling us back for a more thorough examination." - A New York Times / New York Public Library Best Illustrated Children's Book 2019 Gus's Garage "Clearly, one animal's clutter is another pig's livelihood in this buoyant, rhyming tale." -The New York Times Who's Driving? "Belgian illustrator Leo Timmers creates a delightful play on the fable of "The Tortoise and the Hare", which sees the hare driving a racing car." - The Telegraph, Book of the Year 2020 Franky "On top of delivering a tender, funny friendship story, Timmers leaves readers with the impression that Sam's creativity and faith have allowed him to tap into a truth far bigger than himself." - Publishers Weekly Bang! "Watching vehicles bash into one another is a perennial rib-tickler for kids, and Timmers exploits this with a marvellously loony series of fender benders... Timmers never skimps, painting with devoted attention every automotive detail and gleam in every chicken's eye, and providing a plausible cause for every new accident." - Publishers Weekly, Starred Review
