When Janie's neighbour Mrs Tolen goes into hospital with a broken
hip, it looks as though she will have to move out of her old
caravan and into a house. Janie is desperate to help, but all seems
lost until her school visits a local recycling plant. All it takes
from there is imagination, a supportive community, and lots and
lots of hard work to transform Mrs Tolen's old caravan into a safe
and secure new home! The latest picture book by renowned Romani
storyteller Richard O'Neill celebrates the traditional Traveller
virtues of resilience, adaptability, loyalty and independence.

Korean artist Cindy Kang - as well as a comprehensive booklet which
includes an introduction to the therapeutic process, how to use the
deck and further resources. Take the first step towards creating
deep, meaningful change with The Therapy Toolkit.
One woman's influential contribution to modernism, achieved through
a fascinating revival of tapestry Marie Cuttoli (1879-1973) lived
in Algeria and Paris in the 1920s and collected the work of
avant-garde artists such as Georges Braque, Joan Miro, and Pablo
Picasso. In the ensuing decades, she went on to revive the French
tapestry tradition and to popularize it as a modernist medium. This
catalogue traces Cuttoli's career, beginning with her work in
fashion and interiors under her label Myrbor. She subsequently
commissioned artists including Braque, Le Corbusier, Fernand Leger,
Man Ray, Miro, and Picasso to design cartoons to be woven at
Aubusson, a center of tapestry production since the 17th century.
Today these cartoons-paintings and collages by canonical
artists-are often understood as autonomous works of art, but this
catalogue uncovers their original purpose as textile designs.
Beautifully illustrated with rarely exhibited works by giants of
European modernism, Marie Cuttoli reveals the significant
contributions of a shrewd and visionary woman as well as the role
of the decorative arts in the development of the movement.
