Get Real, Mallory!
What if one of your drawings became real?
Nomi loves drawing dogs, but finds them difficult to draw. It's much easier to draw fish because she has a fish. But she's not allowed a dog in her flat. Stephen tells her to get real – why should she have a dog? At bedtime Nomi tells her drawing of Mallory the dog to get real. Why should he be special? And in the dead of night Mallory DOES. He's real! Nomi has her own dog friend! And then the adventures really begin...
A magical story celebrating the power of a creative imagination.
There is Not Usually a Hole
"Adorable ... spectacular ... funny" Guardian on Daisy Hirst's books.
If you saw a hole in the ground and a banana popped out of it, would you go in and explore? A quirky, fun and surreal picture book about the tricky business of sharing, surprising new friendships and snacks for all curious little adventurers, from the creator of the internationally successful Natalie & Alphonse series.
Betsy and Philippa are out on a walk, when Betsy points to the ground. "There is not usually a hole."Then something comes out of the hole. It is a banana.
Next, Philippa disappears down the hole – so Betsy has to go and find her!
