All About Cats is a collection of hilarious rhymes . . . all about
cats! These short, funny rhymes are brought to life with
illustrations from Axel Scheffler, the bestselling illustrator of
The Gruffalo. Cats are sleek, and cats are slick. They read, and do
arithmetic! Have you ever seen a cat playing a piano? Or taking a
bubble bath with a rubber duck? Find out what cats really get up to
when people aren't around! Axel Scheffler's charming and witty
illustrations introduce all kinds of cats - making mischief,
playing games, singing songs and out on adventures. This collection
of hilarious, quirky poems by Frantz Wittkamp is wonderfully
adapted from German to English for the very first time by
celebrated children's author David Henry Wilson. With fourteen
delightfully funny short poems, and full-page colour illustrations
by Axel Scheffler, the genius illustrator of Room on the Broom,
Zog, The Smeds and the Smoos and many more, this collection is sure
to entertain children young and old, and is the perfect gift for
any cat fan.
This gift range is inspired by Henry Wilson's Pattern and Ornament
in the Arts of India , an outstanding sourcebook of photographs and
drawings for lovers of both design and India, and practising
artists and designers everywhere. Henry Wilson's drawings - which
in a magically abstract form copy the decoration illustrated or
perform variations on it - allow the reader to understand and revel
in the Indian aesthetic. They can also inspire designers to find
patterns in existing decoration and produce original results.
Following the critical and commercial success of Pattern and
Ornament in the Arts of India, Henry Wilson has turned for this
companion volume to a single theme. But what a theme: the variety
of floral motifs in the exquisitely wrought details of India's
architectural wonders is boundless, and one can only marvel at the
way in which the basic elements of wood, stone and plaster have
been transformed into masterworks of decorative art. From the
illustrious Mughal Empire during its greatest period of
monument-building and artistic creativity to the time of British
rule, which brought with it an unprecedented period of peace that
allowed great wealth to be concentrated on the arts, the richness
of India's architecture is overwhelming. Henry Wilson's fine
photographs reveals the skill, patience and pictorial imagination
of the many thousands of craftsmen who have turned to floral motifs
and rendered them with precision and life-enriching creativity.
Juxtaposed with the photographs are Wilson's own graphic
transpositions of the designs - a wealth of detailed drawings, all
created by hand but with a stencil-like clarity that helps us
understand the original historical patterns. The result is an
invaluable sourcebook that will appeal not only to those interested
in one of the world's oldest civilizations and greatest cultures,
but also to anyone seeking inspiration for their own graphic
creations.
Rouse, a Council official, is visiting the theatre run by Mike
Pemberton-Hawkesley, and his mission is simple: to save the Council
money. His brainwave is to turn the theatre into a storage facility
for files; Mike, understandably, is outraged. Mavis Dinwiddy -
intervenes and the hilarious absurdity of the situation, compounded
by Rouse's very idiosyncratic verbal style, is maintained right up
to the end of this surprising and enigmatic play. Simple to stage -
no set is required - this is an ideal festival piece.
