A zany
take on the virtual age, the machine in this book can
play every game in the world on its screen, knows every
joke and can list every recipe in existence, amongst
other things.
However, as the two young protagonists of the story
gleefully demonstrate to its curious salesman, the
machine can’t actually play a real game with
a home made bat and ball, can’t make a gigantic
mess of a real life mud-cake and it certainly doesn’t
know how to laugh out really loud ...
This
charming, colourful book, from new imprint Gracewood
Hollows, teaches that sometimes what you see on a
computer screen can’t compete with the raucous
fun of getting outside, getting grubby, and doing
something for real!
More information coming soon.

Just
in time for Halloween comes Spooky Like You, an illustrated
storybook featuring a girl and her cat — that
she’s convinced is the spookiest cat in the
world.
In
a series of eerie events, she tries to find out just
what it is that makes her pet so spooky, and if she
can be just as spooky as him if she shares his feline
activities.
As
she continues through a checklist of unusual, albiet
impossibly cute, cat behaviour, the little heroine
finds out that being spooky is hard work — and
maybe not for her!
A
fun, colourful book to revisit time and again, even
long after October has passed ...
More
information coming soon.
