This is the perfect opportunity to introduce children aged 3 to 6 to the excitement of live theatre.

This popular story by Valerias Thomas, illustrated by Korky Paul is now available as a Big Book to help in the teaching of reading. This book has a simple text, bold pictures, and a good sense of humour. There will be a big demand for Big Books in the UK in this National Year of Literacy.

This combination of off-beat humor and wonderfully funny illustrations is sure to be a big hit with preadolescent kids. Rhino and Hippo are always boasting about their muscles, each convinced that he''s stronger than the other. It takes a brainy, bouncy Brer Rabbit to trick them into the greatest tug-o-war contest ever.

This is the story of a little boy who climbs, swings, digs, flaps, and stamps. They call him monkey, parrot, rabbit, elephant, wriggly-jiggly-worm. But he''s none of these things. He''s Samuel David. But, please, just call him Sam. In this very child-centred book, Korky Paul has used a more gentle (but still at times hilarious) style to illustrate the antics of a little boy and his friend. Korky Paul was shortlisted for the 1997 Kate Greenaway medal.

Winnie, a Feiticeira, morava numa casa preta. A casa tinha tapetes pretos, poltronas pretas, cama preta, lençóis e cobertores pretos. Até o banheiro era preto. Wilbur, o gato, também era preto, é claro. O problema é que Winnie não conseguia enxergá-lo... até o dia em que ela resolveu fazer uma de suas mágicas!

A clever but weak rabbit tricks two strong braggarts, a rhino and a hippo, into a tug-of-war against each other instead of against him and teaches them that friendhip is stronger than rope.

One day Billy Bumps tore down a wall and built a palace. In this split-page book by award-winning artist Korky Paul, young children can watch the wall being built up and then knocked down again.
