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.
The Minister's Cat ABC
Another cat classic from Lynley Dodd. Children from across the Infant age-range had huge fun being re-introduced to her well-loved, distinctively different cats and their owners. Vivid illustrations full of typical feline majesty and movement match exactly the aptly selected adjectives-which read alphabetically as if, almost, by accident. Total attention is demanded on every page as the reader/listener meets the Airborne, Busy, Crazy, Dizzy Minister's cat, the Quarrelsome, Rough Farmer's cat and is driven on to a 'Zooming' finale with the Postman's cat. An extremely rich book at many levels.
