A new book from award-winning illustrator Mariajo Ilustrajo, Lost
is the story of a polar bear who finds himself lost, in a big
concrete city. He politely asks the city folk for help but everyone
is much too busy and impatient to help the newcomer. He finds
himself travelling on the subway only to be noticed, finally by a
little girl. The girl takes the homesick bear by the paw and under
her innocent wing. Under the nose of her seemingly unaware mum, she
feeds him dinner, gives him a bath and they read stories together.
When the polar bear wistfully looks at a poster of the North Pole
on her bedroom wall, the little girl realises that her friend needs
help to get home. This is a story about the power friendship has to
help you feel found, and even to transport you home.
From the creators of the critically acclaimed The Night Gardener
and Ocean Meets Sky comes a whimsical and elegantly illustrated
picture book about community, art, the importance of giving back -
and the wonder that fell from the sky. THE GUARDIAN "[...] gorgeous
illustration [...] intricate monochrome [...] acid-bright touches
of colour [...] will prompt lively discussion." It fell from the
sky on a Thursday. None of the insects know where it came from, or
what it is. Some say it's an egg. Others, a gumdrop. But whatever
it is, it fell near Spider's house, so he's convinced it belongs to
him. Spider builds a wonderous display so that insects from far and
wide can come to look at the marvel. Spider has their best
interests at heart. So what if he has to charge a small fee? So
what if the lines are long? But as Spider raises the prices,
insects stop showing up, much to Spider's bemusement. And then, all
of a sudden, an unexpected disaster hits and the marvel disappears!
This charming story is accompanied by characterful illustrations,
and also teaches children important life lessons about greed and
the importance of sharing.

OUCH! My Tummy Hurts is intended to help inform children about the
medical world. It is the first book in the 'To the Doctors' series
that tells the tale of fictional characters going to the doctors to
get their aches, pains or their problem seen to by a doctor. In
this story, avid football player Oliver Price has a mysterious
tummy ache and loss of appetite. This book follows him 'to the
doctors' and throughout his medical journey towards making a full
recovery from his diagnosis... The aim of this series is to
dissolve children's fears and help educate them on medical problems
including, but not limited to, disabilities, injuries and
procedures. It aims to target curious kids, patients and perhaps
even aspiring doctors. Of course, this series is not a substitute
for medical advice and parents should always take medical concerns
to healthcare professionals. This series will simply outline the
process of dealing with medical issues in a child-friendly story
format to help 'establish the unestablished' for children who may
be fearful of the unknown and to even inspire children to go into a
medical profession. This book in particular focuses on Oliver, an
avid football player, and his mysterious tummy ache...
Packed with delightful scenes showing Easter bunnies, chicks and
other creatures in flowery spring settings. Simply brush water over
the black and white designs to reveal an array of uplifting
colours.

aaneen word nuwe babas gebore, maar geen siel gaan verlore nie. Wat
