Murri-karhu on suunnitellut täydellisen retkipäivän ystävälleen Tupulle. Harmi vain, että vastoinkäymiset seuraavat toisiaan. Ensin he lukevat karttaa väärin, sitten nuotio ei syty millään. Murri jo vallan lannistuu. Ei tässä näin pitänyt käydä! Onneksi Murri huomaa pian, että suunnitelmat voi aina kirjoittaa uudestaan. Yllättävästä telttaretkestä kertova kuvakirja on mainio tarina kaikille niille, joita on joskus harmittanut mönkään mennyt päivä. Aikamoisesta sopasta voikin tulla erinomainen kaakaohetki!

Suuri Amerikan-siirtolaisuus oli noin sata vuotta sitten valtava asia, kun Euroopasta siirtyi miljoonia ja Suomesta satojatuhansia ihmisiä Pohjois-Amerikkaan uutta elämää etsimään. Muutamasta tuli tunnettu jääkiekkoilija. Takakannen kuvien Albert Pudas oli ensimmäinen Suomessa syntynyt NHL-pelaaja ja etukannen Pentti Lund kuului lyhyen aikaa liigan tähtipelaajiin. Toisen polven kiekkoilijoiden määrä oli jo huomattava. Heistä Joe Wirkkusella oli merkittävä rooli Suomen maajoukkueen päävalmentajana. Nyt jääkiekkoilijat toteuttavat sitä haavetta, joka alkuperäisillä siirtolaisilla oli. Tämä kirja kertoo suuresta siirtolaisuudesta jääkiekon näkökulmasta sekä siirtolaiskiekkoilijoista, erityisesti Pentti Lundista.

"Ours is little, just like me!" beams Cubby. Carefully, she and Daddy dig up the tree, put it in a pot and take it home. Cubby quickly grows very attached to Little Tree. She sings it songs and reads it stories. And on Christmas Day there's one last present - a bright red ribbon to go round Little Tree's pot.

Luckily, Daddy has the perfect solution: Little Tree will live right outside in the garden until next winter, when the Christmas magic can start all over again. This heartwarming festive story is tied up with a subtle environmental message! Just like The Christmas Pine by Julia Donaldson and Victoria Sandøy, The Christmas Eve Tree by Delia Huddy and Emily Sutton, and Dasher by Matt Tavares, The Littlest Christmas Tree is a true modern classic.

A moving tale of friendship and understanding, beautifully illustrated and deftly written by the inimitable Jane Chapman. Mole loves the hustle and bustle, laughter and excitement of being with her friends. But sometimes she needs a little space for herself. To stop and breathe. To think and rest.

This warm and welcoming tale sensitively explores the needs of introverted children.

A heartfelt story, deftly written and beautifully illustrated by the inimitable Jane Chapman. “I miss Bear…” sniffed Mole, “but I know he wouldn’t want us to be sad.” “How can we feel happy?” puzzled Beaver. “Everything is different now.” Bear died on a Friday, as sun speckled the grass and caterpillars nibbled the leaves. Beaver and Mole are devastated by the loss of their friend. They share their sadness and anger, but find joy in their memories and stories of Bear. Together they decide to finish Bear's treehouse, only to discover that he had a surprise waiting for them all along. One that they will carry in their hearts for ever. It can be difficult to know what to do when someone dies. Grief is all-consuming, complex and powerful. This uplifting, gentle and reassuring story about the death of a loved one encourages those who have lost, both young and old, to celebrate and remember their loved one, while also finding solitude in friendship and community during times of hardship. The ideal companion for readers of Badger's Parting Gifts, The Memory Tree and Michael Rosen's Sad Book.
