New Releases by Chris Haughton

From the creator of Little Owl Lost and Oh No, George! comes a funny, strikingly illustrated story of best-laid plans — and the secret to attracting the birdie. Four friends creep through the woods, and what do they spot? An exquisite bird high in a tree! “Hello birdie,” waves one. “Shh! We have a plan,” hush the others. They stealthily make their advance, nets in the air. Ready one, ready two, ready three, and go! But as one comically foiled plan follows another, it soon becomes clear that their quiet, observant companion, hand outstretched, has a far better idea. Award-winning author-illustrator Chris Haughton is back with another simple, satisfying story whose visual humor plays out in boldly graphic, vibrantly colorful illustrations.

The debut nonfiction book from bestselling author and illustrator Chris Haughton that explores the story of information throughout human history. We are used to technology improving all the time. Next year we will have better phones, cars, and technology. What is it that makes technology improve rather than stay static or even fall into decline? The answer is information. If we can record knowledge we can collect and share it. We can continue adding to it and it grows and grows. It hasn't always been like this. For a long time, human progress was very slow or static. At some points it felt like our progress even ran backward! But the ability to record information in the form of writing and collecting data has caused an explosion of technological progress. This book tells the story of how we came to collect information, and what it means for us.

Chris Haughton's beloved 'Maybe' arrives at the US, in Spanish for the first time! A funny, suspenseful and keenly observed cautionary tale about pushing boundaries and indulging your more mischievous side (when nobody is looking!). Three little monkeys, and their big monkey, are sat high up on their branch in the forest canopy. "Ok, monkeys! I'm off," says the big monkey. "Now remember. Whatever you do, do NOT go down to the mango tree. There are tigers down there." Mmm... mangos! think the little monkeys. They LOVE mangos. Hmm... maybe... maybe they could just look at the mangos? That'd be ok, right? Los monitos saben que hay muchos tigres cerca del árbol. Pero ellos quieren comer un mango. ¡Les encantan los mangos! ¿Y si bajan con cuidado y tan rápidos como el rayo? Solo por mirar no pasaría nada, ¿no? Ummm.... Quizás...
