Never Get Bored Draw and Paint
Discover how to doodle a sloth, turn pencil shavings into pictures and draw in ways you never imagined. Then try printing, splattering paints and painting with dots. There are ideas for portraits, patterns, optical illusions and more, so you’ll soon have enough artwork for your own exhibition — and this book will show you how to stage one too.
I Want to Dance
One night, a white rabbit glimpses a ballet class in progress and is enchanted. She gathers her courage and asks if she may join the class. Soon, other friends join too, and learn – along with classical ballet – that being true to yourself can be beautiful. A heartwarming story about having the courage to step into unknown worlds.
The Great Raspberry Mix-Up
The Belville Cake competition is just around the corner and Freddie’s friends have persuaded him to enter – but rival baker Bernard will stop at nothing to sabotage Freddie at every turn.
