A Bit Lost order quantity

Hardback
Author: Chris Haughton
In Stock: 0
Customer Order Reference:
This is a beautiful and witty picture book charting the journey of Little Owl who is just 'a bit lost'...Little Owl must be more careful when he is sleeping...Uh-oh! He has fallen from his nest, and with a bump he lands on the ground. Where is his mummy? With the earnest assistance of his new friend Squirrel, Little Owl sets off in search of her, and meets a sequence of other animals. Yet while one might have his mummy's Big Eyes, and another her Pointy Ears, they are simply not her. Chris Haughton's striking colour illustrations follow Little Owl on his quest. Which of his new friends will lead him back to his mummy? This title absolutely perfectly captures the timeless anxiety of separation, followed by joy of reunion, of mother and child. It features eye-catching artwork from a promising new talent. If you're not tempted to shed a tear with Mummy Owl when her son is restored to her, you must have a heart of stone.

Adventures of Tintin : Bind-up 1 order quantity
  +   -
NZ$ 45.00 each
Hardback
Author: Herge
In Stock: 0
Customer Order Reference:
Volume 1 in a bind-up hardback series of Tintin adventures This first volume contains two titles:
Tintin in the Land of the Soviets
Tintin in the Congo
Sealed with a red band that reads:
An essential volume for collectors. Tintin au Congo was first published in book form in French in 1931. This brand new translation by Leslie Lonsdale-Cooper and Michael Turner, the original Tintin translators, includes a fascinating foreword describing the publication history of Tintin's african adventure, and placing it in historical context.
"In his portrayal of the Belgian Congo, the young Herge reflects the colonial attitudes of the time...he depicted the african people according to the bourgeois, paternalistic stereotypes of the period - an interpretation that some of today's readers may find offensive."

The Dickensian Christmas story is given a Kiwi twist. "What a whole lot of hoo-ha, this 'let's all be merry' - the dinners, the pressies and fuss! A load of old CODSWOLLOP!" hollered old Jerry. "But leave early then - if you must!" Miserly old Jerry from the Kai Corner Dairy is the New Zealand equivalent of Scrooge. Children will love spotting the odd kiwi icon in Webb's humorous illustrations.
