I Had A Favourite Dress Boni Ashburn & Julia Denos HB $19.95 As the year passes, the narrator’s favourite dress goes through a series of creative changes, from dress to shirt to tank top to scarf and so on, until all that’s left of it is a good memory. Structured around the days of the week, the story is also illustrated to show the passing of the seasons, a perfect complement to the themes of growing older and keeping hold (and letting go) of special mementos. Anteaters To Zebras Alan Fletcher HB $19.95 Originally designed with Alan Fletcher’s grandson in mind, this book is a creative, playful and witty introduction to the alphabet, expressing the pleasure he took in turning work and play into the same activity. Children and adults alike will delight in Fletcher’s series of brightly coloured animals illustrating the letters of the alphabet and in his infectious sense of fun. Picasso’s Trousers Nicholas Allan HB $24.95 Whenever Picasso does something different, people say, “No! No! No! Picasso!” But Picasso doesn’t listen. Instead, he says . . . “Yes!”.

The Artist Who Painted A Blue Horse Eric Carle HB $24.95 The German “Blaue Reiter” painter Franz Marc had his art banned by the Nazis after he died. In his first book in more than four years, Eric Carle does not just tell Marc’s story; he simply assumes his persona. As the book progresses, the colours of the animals stray farther and farther from reality. A short afterword about Marc’s life is included. Materials Alphabet Gloria Fowler Board Book $23 A visual onomatopoeia – where the word looks like the material it represents. Each letter of the alphabet spells out a material that is also made out of that same material...G is for Grass, F is for Felt, L is for Leaves, T is for Twig etc. The perfect ABC book for designers, architects, artists and any creative parent looking for a visually stimulating way to teach their toddler the letters of the alphabet.
