Sinossi

Moya. The M Word. Whisper it. Conceal it. But, please, never mention it … 
  
 Maggie Yates tells her best mate Moya everything. 
  
 She tells her about Mum losing her job – how Mum's taken to crying in secret. She even tells her about her foolproof plan to cheer Mum up: find her a fella with cash to splash.  
  
 Moya's with her every step of the way. I'll help, she smiles. Though you're surfing a rainbow if you think someone like that exists round here. 
  
 But at the back of her mind Maggie knows that Mum's crying is more than sadness. That there are no easy fixes. And that she shouldn't be speaking to Moya any more. Because Moya died months ago. 
  
 An unforgettable novel about grief and healing from Costa Children's and Irish Book Award-winner Brian Conaghan
Disponibile da: 04/09/2020.

    An adorable first words primer inspired by the classic adventure, featuring twelve needle-felted scenes, twelve child-friendly words, and a big white whale. Cuddle up with a classic! In twelve needle-felted scenes and twelve child-friendly words, each book in this ingenious series captures the essence of a literary masterpiece. Simple words, sturdy pages, and a beloved story make these books the perfect vehicle for early learning with an erudite twist. Budding bookworms will delight in this clever retelling of the classics made just for them!  In Herman Melville’s Moby Dick, meet an enterprising young sailor, tremble at the fierce Captain Ahab, and follow their thrilling pursuit of the white whale. It’s a first words primer for your literary little one!  The Cozy Classics series is the brainchild of two brothers, both dads, who were thinking of ways to teach words to their very young children. They hit upon the classics as the basis for their infant primers, and the rest, as they say, is history. From Moby Dick to Pride and Prejudice, here are The Great Books of Western Literature for toddlers and their parents in board book form—a little bit serious, a little bit ironic, entirely funny, and clever, and always a welcome gift. Praise for the series “Remarkable.” —The Daily Telegraph “Quite simply, delightful.” —The Paris Review“Why not draw upon some of the world's best literary classics when writing for children—in this case, babies. Brothers Jack Wang and Holman Wang’s forthcoming series of board books rewrite (in a LOT fewer words) your high school English syllabus and depict stories through needle-felted figures (hence the “cozy”).” —Apartment Therapy“Enchanting . . . Jack and Holman Wang have done a service to literate families everywhere with their Cozy Classics.” —The Wall Street Journal

    A rabbit warrior and his squirrel nephew leave their Irish homeland to embark on an epic journey to Scotland in this novel of heroic adventure. 
     
    Filled with swashbuckling action, pirates, and high seas battles, this fanciful tale is set against the historic backdrop of sixteenth-century Ireland, Scotland, and England, where the English are foxes, wolves, and hawks, and the Irish and Scots are rabbits, squirrels, badgers, and bears. 
     
    “Buckle your swash and prepare to have your timbers shivered, that’s Tam O’Hare on the horizon. Whether Tam is hauling up the mainsail or scaling the castle wall, Scotty Roberts paints the reader right into the middle of every adventure.” —Ian Punnett, radio talk show host, Coast to Coast AM 
     
    “Not only is Tam O’Hare a rollicking good adventure full of fantastic characters and twists and turns that will keep kids and adults alike riveted, but Scotty’s art in beautiful eye-popping color is truly magical and brings the story fully to life! This belongs in every family’s library to read over and over again!” —Dan Madsen, founder of official Star Wars and Star Trek fan clubs 
     
    “Tam O’Hare left my kids and I breathless and decidedly more Scottish. A rollicking tale fit for anyone brave enough to venture into it!”—Grant Wilson of Syfy Channel’s Ghost Hunters
