The Elephantom

Ross Collins

The wryly comic tale of a small girl plagued by a mischievous 'elephantom' who rides up and down the stairs at night on a scooter, eats all her peanut butter and has his friends over for rowdy parties.

Orange Pear Apple Bear

Emily Gravett

The loose energy of the pencil and watercolour pictures will be irresistible to adults and children alike.
