Halvin toimitettuna 15,90 €

After getting lost at sea in a tropical storm, Ariki and Ipo discover an uncharted island and have a great adventure in the second book of the Ariki series. Ariki and Ipo are making the most of a beautiful day, sailing the sea near Turtle Island on a “borrowed” boat. They’re too busy daydreaming to spot the grey clouds gathering overhead – but then a terrible storm breaks, carrying them miles from home. After days without food or drink, they are washed up on an unfamiliar island. The island is beautiful beyond belief: they see butterflies, each one lovelier than the last, lizards chasing across the rocks and, most wonderful of all, a gigantic blue bird with eyes that glow purple. When they meet another castaway, however, the children discover this island is no paradise – there are dangers lurking in the shadows! A nail-biting adventure with a strong message about endangered animals and human intervention, and a wonderful partner to Ariki and the Giant Shark." Zoologist Davies's love of the natural world shines through in this wonderful book... Davies's prose is so evocative you can almost feel the sand beneath your toes."

The Day War Came

The Day War Came

Nicola Davies

Walker Books Ltd
2019
nidottu

Halvin toimitettuna 15,90 €

A powerful and necessary picture book – the journey of a child forced to become a refugee when war destroys everything she has ever known. Imagine if, on an ordinary day, war came. Imagine it turned your town to rubble. Imagine going on a long and difficult journey – all alone. Imagine finding no welcome at the end of it. Then imagine a child who gives you something small but very, very precious... When the government refused to allow 3000 child refugees to enter this country in 2016, Nicola Davies was so angry she wrote a poem. It started a campaign for which artists contributed drawings of chairs, symbolising a seat in a classroom, education, kindness, the hope of a future. The poem has become this book, movingly illustrated by Rebecca Cobb, which should prove a powerful aid for explaining the ongoing refugee crisis to younger readers.

Dagen då kriget kom

Dagen då kriget kom

Speja Förlag

Den här boken tillägnas alla barn som är vilse och ensamma. Och alla som hjälper dem. Tänk dig en helt vanlig dag. Och så plötsligt kommer kriget och förvandlar hela din stad till grus. Tänk dig att du, alldeles ensam, tvingas ut på en livsfarlig resa. Och ingen hälsar dig välkommen när du kommer fram. Tänk dig att du har förlorat allt och alla. Och så kommer ett barn, precis som du själv, och ger dig något litet, men som betyder väldigt, väldigt mycket Under våren 2016 nekade den brittiska regeringen 3 000 ensamkommande barn att få stanna i landet. Ungefär samtidigt hörde Nicola Davies en berättelse om ett flyktingbarn som vägrats tillträde till en skola för att det inte fanns någon stol för henne att sitta på. Nicola Davies skrev en dikt, som blev starten för en kampanj där konstnärer delade bilder av tomma stolar, som en symbol för en plats i ett klassrum, och för att visa sin solidaritet. Dikten illustrerades av Rebecca Cobb och blev till en bilderbok, som på ett lättillgängligt och gripande sätt, kan hjälpa till att förklara den pågående flyktingkrisen för de yngre läsarna. För varje såld bok går 10 kronor till Rädda Barnens arbete. Läsålder: 5+
