This is a baby-being-born story with a difference because this time there are 100 babies being born, the father is carrying the babies and the father is (of course) a seahorse. as well the story is about a seahorse who isn't quite like the rest of the sea horse family, Leo has a tail that won’t quite curl and a fin that wont quite flutter and when a hungry groper arrives the questions is pondered ... where is Leo?
This is a lovely picture book tale with many facts written into the narrative and lovely, humorous illustrations.
Kisses are really special ... especially from the little people. Samuel loves shopping with his mother so when Samuel and his mother shop at the local mall and discovered that the big people didn't smile back to him when he smiled at them young Samuel had to do something about it. When he blew them each a kiss something amazing happened to these people who weren't smiling back.
A cute story with lovely illustrations.
Jack is back (for his third book)! He is still joking. he is still inventing. He has some great friends and Nana is still buying purple undies! Everything is going well for Jack, even the move to the new house has been relatively smooth - there is of course the wedding of his mum and soon to be stepdad but that isn’t causing too many issue either, although he doesn't like the idea of wearing the tuxedo! But his mum's latest news is not good news at all. It's scary and frightening and changes Jack's world - and the news is all to do with cancer.
Touching and delightfully written this book is endorsed by the Cancer Council of NSW
This is beautiful. Once again the Silk family are here, but this book features Scarlet.
When she meets young Anik she hears of all that he has endured so Scarlet decides to declare PEACE in the valley (black tights make great armbands). Scarlet's small action has a big result and has an impact on all the valley folk culminating in a special celebration - a march for Peace - right on Christmas Eve.
Lookout as well for the other books in the award-winning Kingdom of Silk series:- The Naming of Tishkin Silk; Layla, Queen of Hearts; Perry Angel’s Suitcase; All the Colours of Paradise, and now, Plum Puddings and Paper Moons.
One of my favourite books from last year!
Enjoy the reading!
