Just Imagine
by
Pippa Goodhart
Illustrated by Nick Sharratt
Just imagine if you were so big you could take a bath in a swimming pool... or so small that you could sleep in a matchbox! Imagine being a ghost or a snowman, a flower or a scarecrow. Imagine what it would be like to invent an incredible machine, be an animal or a magical creature. Imagine exploring the depths of the ocean, tunnelling underground or even travelling through time... This new picture book from the team behind the hugely popular You Choose is perfect for setting young imaginations free.
With a simple rhyming text by Pippa Goodhart and Nick Sharratt's reassuringly familiar bright, bold, pictures, Just Imagine is a robust picture book that's great fun to explore together. Although it doesn't have a traditional narrative, the fantastically detailed spreads are guaranteed to engage young readers' attention, being packed full of imaginative ideas, entertaining details, humorous touches and intriguing questions, that will set children dreaming, imagining and inventing stories of their own.

Nick liked drawing from an early age. 'When I was nine,' he says, 'a picture that I'd drawn at school was pinned up in the hall, and the husband of one of the teachers saw it and offered me five pounds to do a similar picture for him. That's when I decided I was going to be a professional artist one day! I nearly always drew in felt tip pens then, and I liked drawing big crowd scenes. I'd start in the bottom left-hand corner of the paper and just let the picture grow, telling myself stories about each of the characters in turn as I drew them.'
