The fourth title from the brilliant Emily Rand, author and
illustrator of a Dog Day, In the Darkness of the Night and The Lost
Property Office. Mr McDuff lives in a house full of stuff! He loves
collecting things - bits and pieces he thinks could be useful one
day, but his neighbours call it junk! They keep their houses neat
and tidy, and hurry by without saying hello. Everyone except Mo,
that is. Can Mo and Mr. McDuff convince the rest of the
neighbourhood that his stuff is useful, and that reusing and
repairing is often better than throwing things away? A story about
recycling and the environment as well as community, kindness and
helping others. Readers will find new things to spot every time
they look at Emily Rand's incredibly detailed illustrations. Build
and inspire a feeling of community and a sense of looking after
their environment in the next generation.

In a world of endless colors, sizes and shapes it's easy to get a
little dizzy. But can there ever be order amid the chaos? Join one
little girl on her journey to find out just what makes the world a
beautiful place to be in. When Frankie begins sorting out her toy
box, she decides not to stop there. She organizes her bedroom, her
classroom, even the bathroom. Perhaps people can be organized too?
But how? Frankie quickly realizes that the variety and diversity of
life on Earth is perhaps what makes it the most beautiful of all.
In the Darkness of the Night takes the reader through the sounds
that a young child hears whilst curled up in bed waiting to fall
asleep. From the familiar, reassuring noises of the family and the
home including muffled voices and humming pipes. Next we move out
into the garden, with the snuffling and screeching of foxes. And
then suddenly what's that? Zoom! A car speeds by and a distant
siren sounds. Then the illustrations expand to the city beyond, as
we see those who work throughout the night, such as cleaners or
nurses. And finally, as the sun rises, the early morning sounds
begin with the birdsong, clatter of dustbins and letterboxes as the
city wakes up again. Emily Rand takes us on a gentle journey
through the night, looking at all the sounds and activity that
happen whilst you're tucked up warm in your bed!
Two tiny orange goby fish play beneath the waves. A giant shoal
swims past the friends and sweeps one fish away... Beautifully
illustrated by Emily Rand in spectacular neon colours, every
layered scene in this pop-up carousel book celebrates the vibrancy
of ocean life. The cover can be tied back so the book stands on its
own, presenting five different pop-up scenes. Follow the little
fish on its journey through a kelp forest, underwater caves, into
the open ocean and back to its home in the busy coral reef and
revel in the wonders of the ocean.
