Cover Story
Our cover this month features Asterix. To mark the 25th anniversary of Asterix in Britain, Hodder &Stoughton are giving the books a brand new look and releasing two omnibus editions. We are most grateful to Hodder & Stoughton for their help in using this illustration by Albert Uderzo.
Julian, Dream Doctor
Lis Toft
Julian is set on giving his father the birthday present of his dreams. The problem is, what is dad's dream? 'Sleep talkers always tell the truth,' Gloria assures him, so when dad falls asleep in the hammock one Saturday afternoon the perfect opportunity presents itself. Then it's surprises all round! Warmth, humour and vivid imagery-'My mum is like a cool green planet with forests and flowers and waterfalls. Any place around her is a good place to be,' Julian tells us are the hallmarks of the Julian stories and this one is no exception. Perfect for sharing or for solo enjoyment.
