"The award-winning author of I Want My Hat Back is at his glorious
best" Guardian, Best Books of the Year Two turtles have found a
hat. The hat looks good on both of them. But there are two turtles.
And there is only one hat... Evoking hilarity and sympathy, the
shifting eyes tell the tale in this perfectly paced story in three
parts, highlighting Jon Klassen's visual comedy, deceptive
simplicity and deliciously deadpan humour. Available at last in a
stylish, sturdy board book format, this bestselling story is
perfect for sharing in a lap with the smallest of hands.
Look up! From the Caldecott Medal-winning creator of the Hat
trilogy comes a new deadpan gem. Turtle really likes standing in
his favourite spot. He likes it so much that he asks his friend
Armadillo to come over and stand in it, too. But now that Armadillo
is standing in that spot, he has a bad feeling about it... A
hilarious meditation on the workings of friendship, fate, shared
futuristic visions, and that funny feeling you get that there's
something off somewhere, but you just can't put your finger on it.
Merging broad visual suspense with wry wit and existential
silliness, celebrated picture-book creator Jon Klassen gives us a
wholly original comedy for the ages.
The moving story of the extraordinary friendship between a boy and
his fox and their epic journey to be reunited. Beautifully
illustrated by multi-award winner, Jon Klassen. Now available in
Paperback! Pax was only a kit when his family was killed and he was
rescued by 'his boy', Peter. Now the country is at war and when his
father enlists, Peter has no choice but to move in with his
grandfather. Far worse than leaving home is the fact that he has to
leave Pax behind. But before Peter spends even one night under his
grandfather's roof he sneaks out into the night, determined to find
his beloved friend. This is the story of Peter, Pax, and their
journeys back to each other as war rampages throughout the country.
A profound and moving story with stunning illustrations by
award-winning illustrator, Jon Klassen, 'Pax' is destined to become
a classic in the vein of 'Charlotte's Web' and 'Watership Down'.

A classic tale about an extraordinary and unlikely animal
friendship. For fans of Paddington Bear and Wallace and Gromit.
From Newbery Honor Author, Amy Timberlake and multi-award winning
illustrator, Jon Klassen comes a beautiful tale of friendship for
readers aged 7+. Meet Skunk and Badger. The first time Badger saw
Skunk, he thought, 'puny' and shut the front door. There was simply
too much slick in this Skunk's stripe. Too much puff in his tail.
Also, there'd been that grin, and the way he'd stuck out his paw as
if he had been looking forward to meeting Badger. Badger knew what
to make of that. He shut the door before the fellow got any ideas .
. . But Skunk is Badger's new roommate, and there is nothing Badger
can do about it. When Skunk bursts into Badger's life, everything
Badger knows is upended. Tails are flipped. The wrong animal is
sprayed. And why-oh-why are there so many chickens? Skunk and
Badger is a beautiful reminder that sometimes opposites are
destined to be the best of friends. A book you'll want to read
again and again, beautifully illustrated throughout by Jon Klassen.
The reluctant odd couple from the highly-acclaimed Skunk and Badger
are back in this heartfelt, funny adventure! Buried in the heart of
every animal is a secret treasure. Badger's is the Spider Eye
Agate, stolen years ago by his crafty and treasure-trade-dealing
cousin, Fisher. Skunk's is Sundays with the New Yak Times Book
Review. When Mr. G. Hedgehog threatens to take the Book Review as
soon as it thumps on the doorstep, Skunk decides an adventure ('X
Marks the Spot!') will solve both their problems. Badger agrees,
and together they set off for his favorite campsite on Endless
Lake. But all is not as it seems at Campsite #5. Harrumphs in the
night. Unexpected friends. Then Fisher appears, and Badger knows
something is up. Something involving secrets, betrayals, and lies!
And a luminous, late-Jurassic prize. Caldecott medalist Jon Klassen
and Newbery Honor author Amy Timberlake take readers on a second
adventure in the new series reviewers have called an instant
classic. It's Wallace and Grommit meets Winnie the Pooh, the ideal
read for fans of Frog and Toad and Wind in the Willows. The
jacketed hardback includes full-colour plates and additional
black-and-white illustrations.

memory and renews his search with a vengeance...
