Books for kids...
When a city family move to the country the children soon discover an enchanted wood which contains a magic tree.
Until Franny, Beth and Joe climb the tree they will not know which magical land they are to visit, not all of which are straightforward, as a mistake in one could lead to the children being marooned there indefinitely.
Blyton creates wonderful and mysterious worlds which will enchant today’s young readers.
Unusual characters inhabit these strange lands — like Moon-face, Silky, and especially The Old Saucepan Man who mishears every second thing said to him with hilarious results. In the second book, cousin Rick is equally amazed by their experiences.
Adults may quibble at the PC cleansing of the stories, but these luxury editions will introduce a new generation to the magic of Enid Blyton. Suitable for age six and upward.
Little Owl’s mummy has wonderful news for her little chick — a new baby owl is getting ready to arrive, but Little Owl is not happy about this upstart who might mess things up.
“I am your baby,” says Little Owl to Mummy who knows how to calm her worried little owl.
Little Owl suggests different characters which might emerge from the egg, mummy playing along with the charade until Little Owl wishes that the egg would actually contain a tiny owl.
That way Little Owl would be known as Big Owl. Beautifully illustrated by Alison Brown, this is a charming book for keeps. Suitable for age five and upward.
This special edition is a treasury of illustrations of the many possible dragons, as imagined by very young children.
Each dragon is different. Some sleep with their owners to protect them, some sport with dolphins in the waves, while other tiny ones whisper tales of exotic stories into their owners’ears.
Field notes at the end of the book offer inspiring information about dragons, mythical and real. Suitable for age six and upward.
