Dandelions

Page 1 of 2

This heart-warming picture book explores the bond between a father and his daughter. One day, a little girl notices her father mowing the lawn — in the process destroying her favourite flowers: the dandelions. She rushes out to stop him, but she’s too late, they’re all gone. There’s nothing for it: she’s just going to have to sit outside and wait until they grow back! But fortunately, Dad has another idea. Exquisite watercolour illustrations combine with lyrical text to create a story that’s perfect for readers aged 4–8. Exploring the resilience of nature, the importance of hope, and the love between a parent and a child, this is a book that will be cherished by families, and recommended by teachers and librarians.

Tania McCartney & Tina Snerling

The simple text in Tottie and Dot highlights the futility of “keeping up with the Joneses”, and that it is simpler and easier to live in harmony with your neighbours.

Tottie and Dot are two little girls who live side by side. Life is very peaceful until one day the girls begin competing with each other to create the best house. As the story unfolds, jealousy takes hold and their competitive spirit gets increasingly out of control until, ultimately, things collapse in a disastrous heap. Will Tottie and Dot realize the importance of their friendship before it’s too late? Detailed illustrations perfectly complement the simple storyline and will provide children aged 4–7 with hours of entertainment, as well as a valuable life lesson!

A fun, flip-over book that reads from both front and back, Smile Cry is a unique picture book for young kids, showcasing the full emotional range of their formative years. Readers follow three adorable characters — piglet, bunny and cat — as they react emotionally to a variety of events and circumstances from everyday life. From an ‘ate all the pies’ smile to an ‘ice-cream plopping down cry’, children will empathize with the tear-jerking calamity of a popped balloon or lost toy, or feel the smiley warmth of being tickled. The clever ‘flip book’ format means that the ‘Smile’ story reads from front to back, while the ‘Cry’ story reads from back to front, with the two delicious narratives meeting in the middle.

What Could It Be? Sally Fawcett

This concept book for kids is all about unleashing creativity, thinking outside the square and opening the mind to possibility! Part picture book, part artistic inspiration, What Could It Be? is an interactive adventure for pre-primary and primary school-aged children organized into paired double-page spreads. The first spread in each pair introduces a basic geometric shape (square, circle, triangle, etc.) and then opens the door for creative thinking by posing the question, ‘What else could it be?’ The following spread provides the answer, with the focus shape transformed into many objects in a glorious artwork. These pages provide a further interactive element, as kids are encouraged to find specific objects and count the ‘hidden’ shapes. The reader is guided through the pages by the character of a young boy, who allows many aspects of his world to be ‘discovered’ via the detailed illustrations.
