In this new edition of the classic picturebook for friends aged
four and up, Kathryn Cave and Nick Maland explore how being friends
with someone works and what it means to us. Lyrical text and
wonderful illustrations open the way to talking about the times
when life isn't easy - when we're lost in the wood, hurt, angry,
shy, afraid of the dark. That's when we find out who our friends
are and what friends are worth.
This new edition of the classic picturebook about coping with
everyday fears brings to life how it feels when, in the blink of an
eye, your world becomes a scary place. You turn round and they're
there: you've got dragons! Wherever you look and whatever you do,
you can't get away from them. You don't want to think about them,
but you do, all the time. You try to pretend they're not there, but
it's no good. You try to pretend they're not dragons, but that's no
good either. So what do you do? Make sure you get plenty of hugs
for a start. And while you're at it, try giving them names, drawing
them, talking to them, telling them jokes. One fine day, just when
you think they're going to be there for ever, it will suddenly dawn
on you that something feels different. And it IS! At last your
dragons have gone! This is a reassuring, honest book about coping
with the fears we all share. Down-to-earth text and splendid, witty
illustrations deliver a cheering reminder that no dragon is more
powerful than YOU.
A collection of three wonderfully festive stories from Eva

young Viennese girl discovers, to her horror, who really brings the
children's presents at Christmas. In The Christmas Star a family
encounters a fortune teller at the local Christmas market who
changes their lives. The Great Carp Ferdinand is a story about a
hero with a difference as it follows the impact that Ferdinand -
the carp intended for the Mannhaus family's Christmas dinner - has
on the household in the lead-up to Christmas.
