A picture book edition of a much-loved classic, with illustrations
by award-winning artist, Robert Ingpen. This timeless tale has
never been out of print and is one of the best-loved children's
titles in English literature. Kenneth Grahame's wonderful
imagination and quiet humour continue to charm children and adults
alike, and Robert Ingpen's stunning illustrations bring to life the
adventures of Toad, Mole, Ratty and Badger. When the Mole leaves
his spring-cleaning and heads up into the open air, he embarks on a
series of exhilarating adventures with his new friends: the
laid-back Ratty, the gruff yet kindly Badger and the
self-satisfied, irrepressible Mr. Toad. The impulsive Toad leads
the friends from one escapade to the next – from upturned gypsy
caravans to stolen motorcars, a daring prison escape and, finally,
to a heroic confrontation with the sinister inhabitants of the Wild
Wood. Now retold in picture book form by Karen Saunders – with
stunning artwork by Robert Ingpen.

Travelling from her home in New Zealand to a small town in
California, Elizabeth Greer will be claiming an inheritance from an
aunt she hadn't known existed. As an ornithologist, Elizabeth is
accustomed to living a mostly solitary life and she is the first to
admit that she finds birds more comprehensible than people. She
thrives on order and logic and expects the lawyer handling the will
to provide some answers. The lawyer and other people she meets in
Las Palomas are a peculiar lot who speak fondly of her aunt, but no
one seems able to answer her most pressing questions. Instead, she
hears the tragic stories in their past and it's within the context
of these stories that Elizabeth learns about her aunt's profound
capacity for compassion and wisdom that made her an important
presence in the town. With descriptions of bird behavior as an
adjunct to the characters' behavior, Distant Birds is a vibrant and
thought-provoking story about a town that values kindness and
tolerance, creating a refuge.
