Look What I’ve Got!

A story of a show-off getting his comeuppance. Jeremy, it seems, has everything: a new bicycle, a pirate outfit, an enormous bag of lollipops. But he won’t share anything with Sam. Could it be, though, that Sam has something far more valuable? This stunning book is filled with visual jokes and a message to inspire.

Through the Magic Mirror

Toby is fed up. Fed up with books, fed up with toys, fed up with everything. But when he walks through the magic mirror, things are amazingly different. Toby can hardly believe his eyes!

Willy the Wimp

Willy wouldn’t hurt a fly – he even apologizes when someone hits him. The suburban gorillas call him Willy the Wimp. Then, one day, Willy answers a body-building advert… with hilarious results!

Willy the Champ

Willy is different. He likes to read books and listen to music; he’s no good at sports, although he tries; and wherever he goes he gets laughed at. But when he’s threatened by the horrible Buster Nose he really comes into his own.

Silly Billy

Billy is a bit of a worrier. He worries about hats and shoes. He worries about clouds and rain and giant birds. Most of all he worries about staying at other people’s houses. His mum and dad try to help, but still, Billy worries… until a visit to his grandma’s shows him how to overcome his fears with the aid of his imagination – and some tiny worry dolls.

The Tunnel

Once upon a time, there lived a brother and sister who were complete opposites and constantly fought and argued. One day they discovered the tunnel. The boy goes through it at once, dismissing his sister’s fears. When he doesn’t return his sister has to pluck up the courage to go through the tunnel too. She finds her brother in a mysterious forest where he has been turned to stone…

Changes

On Thursday morning at a quarter past ten, Joseph Kaye notices something odd about the kettle… Thus begins a remarkable day for Joseph, a day in which everything seems to change in the most peculiar of ways. The washbasin grows feet, the armchair becomes a gorilla, his bicycle wheel turns into an apple… Joseph’s father had said when he’d left that morning that everything was going to change. But what had he meant? The book explores the boy’s state of mind as he prepares for the return of his parents with his new baby sister.

Willy the Dreamer

Willy loves to dream. He dreams that he’s a film star, a sumo wrestler, a ballet dancer, a painter, an explorer, a famous writer, a scuba diver… Sometimes he dreams that he can’t run but he can fly. He dreams he’s a giant or he’s tiny, a beggar or a king, in a strange landscape or all at sea. He dreams of fierce monsters and superheroes, of the past and, sometimes, the future. Willy’s dreamland is a gallery of creative pictures, each one finely executed and packed with bananas and slyly surreal details that can intrigue and delight. The pictures pay homage to famous paintings by the likes of Dali, Magritte and Henri Rousseau, as well as film and book characters and much more.
