They're called Indestructibles. They could just as well be called
the unstoppables! As in they don't stop selling, don't stop
pleasing, and don't stop filling an essential need for new parents:
a book made for the way babies "read," with their hands and mouths.
And now this bestselling series - which ships over 1 million copies
every year - is welcoming two new titles based on two of the most
popular songs that parents love to sing along with their youngest.
Each is illustrated in a bright, lively, colourful style, by the
artist Vanja Karguli. Moving from country to town, The Wheels on
the Bus sends parents and their kids on an adventure that everyone
loves to act out, from the wipers that go swish swish swish and the
horn that goes beep beep beep to the people that go shh shh shh to
the babies who cry wah wah wah. As they say, it's all about the
journey, not the destination.
If you've ever wanted to know what a panda does all day long, how
your heart manages to shift all that blood around your body or what
makes a rainbow shine, you've come to the right book. A Day in the
Life of a Poo, a Gnu and You features the answers to all of these
questions and many more, all told in a super-fun comic book format
in three awesome sections: Human Body, Animal Kingdom and Earth and
Science. A Day in the Life... is packed with facts, laughs and
amazing illustrations you can dive into all day long. Meet your
grumpy liver that has to do practically EVERYTHING; your trusty
hands that are very, well, handy; the spiky porcupines ready to
charge; lonely Mars rovers abandoned on the Red Planet; raging
tornadoes ready to rip through the pages of the book and bubbly
volcanoes ready to blow. All entries are told in the fun, friendly
and informative style of Mike Barfield, and are brought to life by
the colour-explosion of Jess Bradley's awesome illustrations.
