WHERE’S MY SHARE?
An adaptation of a traditional children’s
rhyme describing a hungry robin and his attempt to share a piece
of bread. Realistic and detailed illustrations feature a host
of woodland and country scenes to accompany the charmingly simple
text. The predictable, question and answer style of the narrative
makes this book popular with young children and gives reading
confidence.

WHITE
IS THE MOON
White is the moon
Shining bright
Sees an owl
In the night.
So begins this
richly illustrated and decorative journey, starting with a moonlit
night, and following through the hours of daylight until nightfall
returns, each page featuring a colour. Brown owls, green frogs
and red foxes are just a few of the many creatures of the day
and night, brought to life in this exquisitely illustrated book.
This circular rhyme ends with the word “goodnight” making this
a perfect choice for bedtime reading.

THE ACORN’S STORY
Who shook me free?
“I” said the breeze
“As I rustled the trees,
I shook you free.”
With these words
begins this lyrical and ingenious rhyme, which traces the life
cycle of an oak tree, from acorn to mighty oak. A story of growth,
decay and renewal, which echoes the repetitions of nature. The
flora and fauna surrounding the tree are captured in delightfully
detailed illustrations. A good choice for children who are interested
in conservation and the environment.
