Grumpy Cat

Author: Britta Teckentrup

Publisher: Boxer Books

Cat eats, sleeps and spends his days alone. The other cats think he is grumpy, but really he is just lonely. But then Kitten turns up and everything changes.

This is a delightful, warm-hearted picture book about loneliness and making friends. Britta Teckentrup's distinctive, bold, expressive illustrations really set this book apart, perfectly capturing the very different personalities of the cat characters.

Animal Spots and Stripes

Stripy zebras and spotty giraffes share a grassland habitat despite their difference in appearance; stripy caterpillars turn into spotty butterflies and spotty dogs chase stripy cats. Lots of bright colours and scope for discussion make this an ideal book for the very young.

Asleep and dreaming, the little girl in this book floats through a shadowy and beautiful blue-black world with her friend, a watchful lion, at her side. Britta Teckentrup is a gifted illustrator-writer, and this is a wonderful, poetic and stylish book about sleep.
