Sinopse

The Complete Works of Beatrix Potter represents a remarkable assemblage of literature that intertwines charming narratives with rich illustrations, showcasing Potter's unique ability to convey moral lessons through anthropomorphized animals. The collection encompasses beloved tales such as "The Tale of Peter Rabbit" and "The Tale of Jemima Puddle-Duck," revealing a stylistic interplay of pastoral realism and whimsical fantasy, all imbued with Victorian sensibilities. This anthology not only celebrates nature's beauty but also reflects the complex social structures of the time, inviting readers into a world where the innocent adventures of animal characters often mirror human experiences. Beatrix Potter, an esteemed author and illustrator born into a wealthy Victorian family, drew upon her naturalist upbringing and deep love for the English countryside to create her literary masterpieces. Potter's profound observations of wildlife and keen understanding of the rural environment significantly shaped her narratives, providing an authentic backdrop for her characters. Her dual role as both a storyteller and artist allowed her to craft a distinctive style that remains influential and beloved across generations. Readers are invited to explore The Complete Works of Beatrix Potter as a literary treasure, ideal for both children and adults. This collection not only serves as an introduction to the enchanting world of Potter'Äôs characters but also offers timeless themes of resilience, curiosity, and respect for nature that resonate with contemporary audiences. It is an essential read for anyone wishing to connect with classic children's literature and appreciate the artistry behind it.

'Spookily spellbinding - gripped me with an icy finger from the first page' - Catherine Bruton
Don't open the box, warned the old man.
But Charlie can't help himself...
Fourteen-year-old London schoolboy Charlie has been looking forward to playing football with his mates in the Christmas holidays. Instead, he is packed off to the wilds of the East Anglian coast to stay with an uncle he barely knows.
It's going to be a tough week. Uncle Patrick's ramshackle house doesn't have wi-fi, his daughter Ariel seems determined to be vile – and who are the mysterious children laughing after dark in the empty bedroom next to Charlie's?
When Charlie finds an ancient brass box buried on the beach, he unleashes a chilling sequence of events. At least these bring him and his grumpy cousin together, as the pair battle to solve the mystery of the 'box of souls' and re-capture the violent ghostly presence wreaking havoc around the town.
A stirring spine-chiller, Ghost Tide is a spooky, unforgettable tale of restless spirits and youthful heroism.
