  The Selkie's Mate

  In a land where people flow between ocean and land, a seal and a fisherman sing together under a flowing moon.
  
  One in a series of tales that explore the deeper, darker side of our connection with the natural world. Be ready to feel a little bit of magic, and perhaps a few shivers down the spine.
  
  - Lyrical text is enhanced by evocative watercolour illustrations in this heart-wrenching tale of love, loss and trust. Inspired by Selkie legends from around the world, this haunting story is part of the Shadows and Light series, ideal for mature readers who are looking for something a bit different.' BookTrust's Watery Reads for 8-12s
  
  - This is a delicate story, and in the wrong hands may be experienced as a rape and false imprisonment story. However, here is it sensitively told, with the seal woman choosing to spend time with the crofter after they have sung together under the moon. [...] The emphasis on the thoughts behind each of their actions could be used in a discussion about relationships, how people have different expectations and how far do we allow our own needs and wants to dominate relationships.
  
  The illustrations are elegant watercolours, complementing the storytelling. The stand out one for me is of two silhouette heads, placed so that they are almost heart shaped, yet looking in different directions. Pulled together by love, but their outlooks are very different.' Janet Dowling, School Library Association (65:3, Nov 2017)

  Children's Favorites - Volume II

  Kenneth Grahame, Margery...

  Presented here are four of the most popular children's books of all time: Kenneth Grahame's "The Wind in the Willows," Margery Williams' "The Velveteen Rabbit" and Lewis Carroll's "The Adventures of Alice in Wonderland" and "Through the Lookingglass."   First, Kenneth Grahame's classic "The Wind in the Willows," one of the most beloved and admired novels of children's literature. The story follows the adventures of the mild-mannered Mole and his friend Rat, who emerge from their winter's slumber to explore the Springtime world, encountering the sedate and businesslike Badger as well as the wild and impulsive Mr. Toad of Toad Hall, who cannot seem to avoid mishaps and run-ins with the police.   Next, Margery Williams Bianco's revered children's story of a stuffed rabbit who longs to be real, "The Velveteen Rabbit" has been one of the world's most beloved children's books for the past 100 years. Chosen as one of the "Teachers' Top 100 Books for Children," this volume features illustrations by the original artist for the book, William Nicholson. Adapted over the years many times for stage, screen and television, The Velveteen Rabbit is a timeless tale of love, loss, friendship and what it means to triumph over adversity.   And finally, Lewis Carroll's classic duo of nonsense and imagination, "Alice's Adventures in Wonderland" and "Through the Lookingglass," books that were immediate sensations upon publication. Both books relate the story of Alice, a young girl who tumbles down a rabbit hole into a world filled with talking rabbits, grinning cats, mad hatters and vengeful queens and, in Book Two, her trip through a mirror into another, magical world. Long hailed as one of the greatest children's book series ever created, "Alice" has permeated the culture. The subject of dozens of adaptations, re-tellings, films and stage productions, here are two of the most treasured works of fiction in the English language.   Enjoy ALL FOUR of these classic children's nove
