Lauren Child

An iconic picture book collaboration about feelings and acceptance from two of the most beloved voices in children's literature. Beautifully crafted compositions together with simple die-cut design, reveal the story of a child who feels as though all their colours have disappeared. Despite the joyful orange balloon, the huge yellow sun and the bright green trees, the child still feels grey. That is until a reassuring hand reaches out and shares words of kindness. Soon the child begins to see the warmth of colour again, and understands that their colours will always be there and that they will always be loved, whether they feel grey or sunshine yellow. Laura and Lauren have created a beautiful book full of empathy and understanding that will provide comfort and hope to readers of all ages.

Na super chytrou a vždy klidnou Ruby tentokrát čekají piráti i příšera z hlubin oceánu. A co teprve když se na scéně objeví Hrabě von Vikomtovič? Tuhle dívku není radno podceňovat, ale jak si poradí s tolika protivníky?

Van egy kishúgom, Lola. Igaz, hogy kicsi, de nagyon jópofa. Anya néha elvisz a boltba. Azt mondja: - Egy valamit választhattok. Lola erre azt mondja: - Három valamit! - Egy valamit! - mondja anya. - Két valamit - mondja Lola. - Akkor inkább semmit - mondja anya. - Akkor inkább egyet - mondja Lola.
