A lost little budgie brings together a young neighbour and his
seemingly grumpy older neighbour in this touching Little Gem from
award-winner and Children's Laureate Joseph Coelho. Mr Buxton is
always having a go at Miles and his friends for climbing the trees
outside their tower block. Miles thinks he's just a grumpy old man
but when he finds a lost little budgie, Miles also discovers that
he and Mr Buxton have more in common than he could ever have
imagined.
Play hide and seek with a boy, his animal friends and a dinosaur
that's surprisingly hard to spot in the city. The brilliantly
interactive follow-up to international bestselling picture book,
Have You Seen Elephant? Best friends boy, dog, and elephant are
VERY good at hide-and-seek. There's a missing dinosaur in the
city--who better to spot this elusive giant? They search the skate
park, the museum, the subway . . . No one in the city can spot the
dinosaur, not even this expert hide-and-seek team. But delighted
readers will be pointing "There it is!" from the first page. This
absurd, laugh-out-loud picture book is richly illustrated with
David Barrow's trademark beautiful use of light and color and
dramatic cityscapes--a guaranteed hit with dinosaur-loving
toddlers. With clues, surprises, and humor, this game-inside-a-book
celebrates imaginative play and is perfect for sharing with
children who will love being better at finding the dinosaur than
their adult reader. David Barrow received the Sebastian Walker
award for most promising children's illustrator from the Cambridge
School of Art. His first book Have You Seen Elephant? was
shortlisted for the Waterstones Prize and is a bestseller around
the world. Praise for Have You Seen Elephant? "Beyond the sheer
absurdity, children will delight in details, such as the
wide-screen TV the elephant holds in one scene, the child's dad so
focused on the soccer game on the screen that he asks, 'What
elephant?' and the sly alterations to the family portraits on the
rear endpapers. Younger audiences will be screaming 'There it is!'
from the get-go."--starred, Kirkus Reviews "This amusingly absurd
story paired with the warm and wonderful illustrations will have
kids coming back again and again."--starred, School Library Journal
"Best of all this book will stand the test of time as there's
something new to be found on every page as you reread."--The
Bookbag UK
The origins of Wrightbus can be traced back to just after the
Second World War in 1946 when the company was founded as Robert
Wright & Son Coachbuilders in Ballymena Northern Ireland.
Robert was joined by daughter Muriel, and son William. Robert
Wright died in 1972\. In 2017 William was awarded a Knighthood in
the Queen's New Year's Honours Manufactured from the end of 2014,
the integral constructed StreetDeck is built in both single and
double-deck variations, the vast majority in the latter. At the
time of writing the workforce stud at 770, but by the end 2022 that
figure will be nearer one thousand. In 2021 70% of production was
diesel powered, but in 2022 only 30% will be diesel, with the other
70% zero emissions.
Scania's first venture into the British double-decker bus market
came in 1973, when with partner MCW, based in Birmingham, they
produced the 'Metropolitan' double-decker. In 1980, after a brief
hiatus, Scania re-entered the British double-decker market with a
chassis for bodying by all the major UK builder. Featuring a
wonderful array of previously unpublished images, this book is a
fond tribute to forty years of Scania double-decker buses on
Britain's roads.

The tale is told by Cris, and ex public school boy, with inherited
money, recently thrown out of the Army having had a spell in
detention for selling MOD property. He meets Colleen, a prostitute,
only in the game to improve her prospects by making quick money.
She is of Irish/Colombian extraction with family still living in
Colombia.
The two of them decide to visit Colombia and Colleen's family,
where they are welcomed. While on an expedition in the jungle they
are kidnapped by guerrillas and discover that the Colombian family
are in the cocaine exporting business.
Looking for more adventure, they decide to try their hand at
smuggling cocaine into England. The story unfolds as they plan and
execute the operation through Portugal, Spain, France, and finally
into england where it reaches a dramatic conclusion in the Devon
countryside.
This is an amusingly written story, using the serious subject of
drugs in a light hearted vein, it does contain some more adult
passages, but is very light reading.

Bury Corporation Transport boasted a fleet of more than ninety
buses - mainly produced by Daimler and Leyland. In many ways the
company was a trailblazing operator; it was one of the first
operators of diesel-powered buses, the only Lancashire municipal
operator of three-axle double-deckers and the first operator of new
Leyland buses after the Second World War. The livery was red and
cream until 1942, when it changed to green and primrose. In 1969,
it was absorbed into SELNEC, which later became Greater Manchester
Transport. Packed with rare and previously unpublished images, this
is a wonderful tribute to a much-loved operator.
Aardvark is only small and the Big Race is long and hard. But Aardvark is going to join in and give it everything she's got!
