A poetry collection for bug-loving children everywhere
"Some insects that sting and some others that bite,
A spider who gives flies a terrible fright,
Some creatures with wings who like flying around
And others that scurry about on the ground,
A beetle who loves eating elephant poo.....
....if that sounds appealing, this book is for you "A collection of
short, rhyming verses about various small creatures, such as bees,
wasps, spiders, and a very hungry dung beetle, this picture book is
beautifully illustrated, and is certain to keep children
entertained and horrified in equal measure.
"Our Solar System's a wonderful place, A collection of planets
rotating through Space, With the Sun at its heart, its own glowing
star; It's so far away we can't reach it by car. If we want to
visit, then here's what we'll need, A spaceship which moves at
incredible speed. Imagine we've built one of just the right kind,
Blast off from the centre and what will we find?" Join the famous
astronomer, Patrick McFuddy and his son, Jacob, on their poetic
journey through our Solar System. With artwork supplied by Robin
Carter (Horrible Histories, Horrible Science) and a wealth of
useful information packed inside, The Silly Solar System is an
ideal way to introduce children from 6 - 12 years to our nearest
neighbours in Space.

At last, a fantastically illustrated new addition to the classic nature guide series.
A Golden Guide to Sharks, like all the books in the series, presents a general overview of its subject in accessible prose, illuminated by detailed illustrations of the species discussed. It's directness enables it to be appreciated by young and mature audiences alike.
In 'The Sunshine Sleuths' Mary Webb introduces us to a likeable
group of youngsters who are out for adventure - and find it.
'Why don't we form a sort of crime fighting gang, ' Luca suggested
enthusiastically, 'we could keep our eyes open for anything
suspicious and investigate it.'
'But nothing suspicious ever does happen round here, ' said
Isabella.
'That's only because we're not looking for it, ' argued Luca, 'I
bet if we really kept our ears and eyes open and took notice of
things, we'd find there are loads of suspicious things going on.'
And so Luca and his younger brother Paolo form 'The Sunshine
Sleuths' and sure enough before too long they all find themselves
investigating something suspicious at a deserted villa.
A self-confessed homage to Enid Blyton, the book has a timeless
feel that even today's streetwise youngsters will find appealing.
