Great Children's book It's now available in U.K. You can get it from Amazon.co.uk

This really is a fantastic read. Magical, strange, funny and sometimes sad. I was forever getting the hardback copy of this from my local library. A real treat for readers of all ages. The pictures (drawn by Nicolas Bently) are most fitting.

This book kept me gripped as I waited to find the latest twist in the tale and I was never disappointed; it containedg everything from sorcery to high adventure. Dinah and Dorinda are daring, brave and mischevious. This book should certainly be brought back into print and everyone should read it.

When her class is given the task of creating a picture, Lucy decides to make hers for her Grandfather who is blind. So she goes about her assignment a bit differently from the rest of the class. Even the teacher does not know what Lucy is up to, which is part of the charm.

Though there are clues sprinkled throughout the story, I think it takes at least two read throughs to find them all. Lucy's enthusiastic pusuit of her goal makes the story zip by in a hurry. Filled with bright colors, this gentle story is never preachy or overbearing, flaws that mar too many kid's books about "differences."

Hi I am Lucy a 6 year old who lives in London.Please read more of Nicola Moon's books. Even though Grandpa can't see he is still wonderful. PLease read Nicola's other books because they are neat. From: Lucy With help from mom

Anthony Morris provides the illustrations for Mouse Tells The Timep, a fun story of a little mouse who queries his animal pals on how they tell time. Everyone has a different method: some look at shadows, some use dandelion clocks, some hour glasses - but poor mouse is confused by all these different methods, and must find his own way in this reassuring lift-the-flap tale.

Something Special is a great book for children with recent additions to the family. It's the story of Charlie, a preschooler, whose life is complicated by his new baby sister, Sally. Although he keeps trying to find something special to bring for share day, his mother is too busy with Sally to help him. My son particularly liked it because Charlie gets angry, stomps his feet, and mutters things--and that's okay. Eventually, Charlie gets to bring the best thing of all for share day: his baby sister Sally.
