This book is a wonderful way of encouraging a child to interact with their environment, helping them to respect and protect the trees that surround them.Trade ReviewVoake, whose charming drawings have a touch of Edward Ardizzone about them, has written a marvellous book about how to grow, measure and identify trees -- Kate Kellaway * Observer *The watercolour illustrations are mini works of art . . . Pure delight, we loved it! Highly recommended! * Hot Brands Cool Places *It would make an excellent gift for a child (or an incompletely educated adult like me) and is a must-have resource for all environmentally aware schools * School Librarian *An attractively illustrated introduction to this subject, combining instructions and ideas for getting to know trees better, in which watercolour illustrations capture the form and beauty of each variety. The trees are well chosen - even the most urban of children won't have to look far to find a tree that they can look up at. * Junior Education Plus *

Flying Eye Books Out, Out, Away From Here
Book SynopsisAn exceptional book for children about emotional intelligence and learning to deal with the many ranges of human emotions.Some days I feel mad. Some days I feel sad. Some days I feel smiling-ear-to-ear glad...Emotions can be strange, sudden, and even overwhelming at times. Through thoughtful words and expressive images, this book guides us on a journey through our imagination... to a place where everything feels calm again.Trade Review"[A] girl’s untethered imagination is unleashed in the superb OUT, OUT, AWAY FROM HERE . . . The illustrations are vivid and misshapen, with bleeding Gauguin reds and a hint of Rousseau’s overstuffed jungles. Things reach a boiling point after the girl’s parents are seen in silhouette screaming at each other — to Miao’s credit she doesn’t temper the terror of the moment — and our heroine, unable to take it anymore, runs through a wooden door and takes refuge in her imagination."—The New York Times“Miao uses bright watercolors to paint a narrative subtext into the pictures.”—Kirkus Reviews“With its advice, soothing text, and expressionistic paintings, this wonderfully crafted work may help young children process their feelings on difficult days. Perfect for SEL collections and small group read-alouds.” —School Library Journal "Out, Out, Away from Here is a charming children’s book that introduces them to handling their different emotions and limitless capacity for imagination. The artwork is absolutely stunning and done in a vibrant watercolour style palette. The expressions of the little girl we see in this story are one of the main highlights for me and it beautifully illustrates the different emotions a child might be facing and how they could cope with them. Another lovely title I just can’t recommend enough!"—Varsha Ravi, Between Bookends
