Philip Ridley0.0 Ruskin Splinter is small and thin, with knock-knees, thick glasses and a squeaky voice, and the idea of him taming a dragon makes the whole class laugh. Big, strong Elvis is stupid but he looks like a hero. So who is more likely to get the big part in the school play? But when the mysterious beast, Krindlekrax, threatens Lizard Street and everyone who lives there, it is Ruskin who saves the day and proves he is the stuff that heros are made of after all.
Магдален Нэб0.0 Follows the amusing adventures of Josie and her best friend Eileen as they celebrate their birthdays, have a sleepover, and participate in a wedding.
Martin Waddell4.0 "Marvellously expressive pictures and a satisfying text make this the outstanding picture book of the year" The Sunday Times
A stunning 25th anniversary edition of a modern classic from two of the most celebrated picture book creators of all time – Owl Babies author, Martin Waddell, and Bear Hunt illustrator, Helen Oxenbury – this is a story of farmyard friendship and justice. Highly commended for the Kate Greenaway Medal and the winner of a British Book Award, this is a beautiful edition to share and treasure with a foreword and gorgeous gold foil on the cover and spine.
