A new edition of a classic tale!

Dorothy and her little dog, Toto, get swept away from their Kansas home in a cyclone, and find themselves in a strange land called Oz. There Dorothy meets the Munchkins and the Wicked Witch of the West and joins the Scarecrow, Tin Woodman, and the Cowardly Lion on an unforgettable journey to the Emerald City to see the wonderful, all-powerful Wizard of Oz.

Witches are real, and they are very, very dangerous. They wear ordinary clothes and have ordinary jobs, living in ordinary towns all across the world—and there's nothing they despise more than children. When an eight-year-old boy and his grandmother come face-to-face with the Grand High Witch herself, they may be the only ones who can stop the witches' latest plot to stamp out every last child in the country! 
This full-colour graphic novel edition of Roald Dahl's The Witches, adapted and illustrated by Eisner Award winner Penelope Bagieu, is the first-ever Dahl story to appear in this format. Graphic novel readers and Roald Dahl fans alike will relish this dynamic new take on a uniquely funny tale.

This 35th anniversary edition is presented as a superb hardback cloth edition. Illustrator Julie Vivas has revisited the artwork for the cover with a stunning updated illustration, that is also included in the book itself. 

This special Collector’s Edition celebrates the Australian classic which has captivated and enchanted children and adults for 35 years. Mem Fox's lovable characters, little Hush and Grandma Poss, and Julie Vivas' exquisite illustrations weave a story of pure magic.

When Mole goes for a walk one spring day, he meets the friendly Ratty at the riverside who invites Mole to join him on his river-boat. The two become firm friends and regularly go boating together, one day ending up at the impressive Toad Hall.

They decide to say hello to Toad Hall's owner, the extremely wealthy and fickle Mr Toad who has since developed an unhealthy passion for motor cars. As Mr Toad continues to waste huge amounts of money on motor cars and regularly injures himself in car crashes; Mole, Ratty and their new friend Badger decide to put Toad under house arrest to prevent him from being a danger to himself.

Unfortunately, the devious Toad escapes and recklessly drives away from Toad Hall in one of his new cars. He is then arrested and it is up to Mole, Ratty and Badger to look after Toad Hall and safeguard it from the weasels, stoats and ferrets until Toad comes back.

Wilfrid Gordon McDonald Partridge was a second collaboration for Mem Fox and Julie Vivas, the author and illustrator of Possum Magic.

First published in 1984, it was similarly an instant success, later translated into several languages and published in the US and the UK. Its classic themes and beautiful artwork have also seen it adapted to the stage as a play for children, but its enduring appeal is in the simple words of a story thoughtfully told, illustrated with humour and understanding.

Alice is just an ordinary girl and it is just an ordinary day by the riverbank until she spots a mysterious white rabbit with a pocket watch who is running late for a very important date. Intrigued by this creature, Alice follows him down a rabbit hole and soon she is in a fantastical world, Wonderland, where nothing seems to make sense any more.

Wonderland is full of weird and wacky animals and talking caterpillars, mad-hatters and tea parties, potions that make Alice grow to the size of a giant, croquet-playing Queens and much, much more.

Humpty Dumpty waiting to play. Humpty Dumpty waiting ALL DAY. 
Poor Humpty Dumpty can’t catch a break! He tries to join in but makes a few mistakes. Can Humpty make friends with all the king’s horses and all the king’s men?

There is no swagman as legendary as the tragic hero of this tale, and there is no Australian song as well-known throughout the world. Here the famous ballad is given depth and perspective. Talented illustrator Freya Blackwood has explored the intriguing background behind the writing of this song, and has shown us not just the lively story of a proud outback larrikin, but also a glimpse into the clashes and struggles that were so formative of Australian history.

There is no greater Australian bush hero than the man from Snowy River, and no greater bush legend than his famous downhill ride.

Award-winning illustrator Freya Blackwood takes a stunning approach to Banjo Paterson’s most famous bush ballad. She brilliantly captures the drama of this much-loved poem, as well as the romance and dizzying landscape of the Australian alpine country.
