Children book in pictures with stories about different places



This year is very hot weather, that is why we have got a lot of insects. What about the book The Fly by Petr Horá?ek?
Sometimes it is an irresistible, sometimes eye-catching book with a curving loop-the-loop signature, a fly path. The fly launches himself jubilantly, spoiling this only with a rueful postscript: "People don't like me being in the house." He is immaculately drawn, with recognisably repellent diaphanous wings and scarlet proboscis. A convincing day-in-the-life develops: confrontations with a fly swat, a dizzying encircling of a lightbulb, a close encounter with an iced cake. This story may have the unwelcome effect of making children housefly-friendly, but enjoy: it has the wittiest ending – begging the reader not to slam the book shut and make its hero history.

Another one book is Insect Detective by Steve and Charlotte Voake.
Delicately drawn compendium even gives wasps a good press, approving their striped nests. There are entrancing visions of dragonflies and a particularly beautiful "violet ground beetle, gleaming in the sunlight". This will intrigue readers and might even overcome the reflex aversion some of us have to six-legged society.

New “must read” from two professionals Julia Donaldson and original illustrator Emily Gravett is Cave Baby. The decor in Cave Baby's nursery is exactly as you'd predict. His Dad, a hunter gatherer, has a deranged look but cave baby remains jolly inside his playpen. An innovative soul, he discovers the joys of graffiti and wrecks the cave paintings. Worse is to follow: kidnap by the animals on the wall. Art can get you into trouble but has its consolations – as Donaldson reveals.

That is why read illustrated books and don’t think that you are a child…
