Sharks Prefer Jazz

Sharks are huge with toothy grins, or small with streamlined pointed fins. They’re blue or brown or black or grey, and swim about the sea all day. But here’s a secret, something new, that might come as a shock to you. A fact I bet that you don’t know, about those creatures down below. Sharks just love... JAZZ! Also, did you know that tigers love show tunes, rabbits hop around to pop music and flamingos boogie down to disco? If you’ve ever wondered just what music a baboon prefers or what you should play to a crocodile, then this is the book for you!

Toucan’s Tree

Toucan loves listening to the buzz of the forest, but when a new noise starts drowning out the usual symphony, Toucan knows things aren’t right. Clouds of dark smoke send the animals running, but when they return, their home and trees are gone. As Toucan takes in the smouldering new landscape, he hears the ghostly whispers of the trees, telling him that it's time for the forest to fight back. Toucan follows, as the wind whips up the seeds from the forest floor and carries them over to the city. They fall onto the roofs, into the cars, into the gutters and drains. And that night, as the city sleeps, the forest grows! The buzz of the city is replaced by the hum of the forest and the people will have to adapt to the new life!”

Philomena’s New Crayons

Little Philomena loved her new, perfectly uniformed, unused tin of crayons. She wanted to show them to everyone but didn’t want them touched in case they became broken or used so much that they lose their pointy tip. Worst of all she was even too nervous to use them herself as they seemed too special to waste on her rubbish drawing. When after an unfortunate accident she loses her crayons, she thinks no one has seen her sadness or cares. However, the next day something strange begins. Mysterious broken and used crayons in all shapes and sizes appear in all sorts of places for her to find. A heart-warming story about how small acts of hidden kindness can add up to something quite wonderful.
