    • They sought it with thimbles, they sought it with care; They pursued it with forks and hope; They threatened its life with a railway-share; They charmed it with smiles and soap. Lewis Carroll's magnificent nonsense poem The Hunting of the Snark features an unlikely cast of characters drawn from the Jabberwocky in Through the Looking Glass. This irresistible version is illustrated, and has an introduction by, Chris Riddell. This is a luxury edition with both black and white and colour artwork, ribbon marker and metallic blue sprayed edges. It was first published by Macmillan in 1876.

    • The Three Little Wolves and the Big Bad Pig

      When it comes time for the three little wolves to go out into the world and build themselves a house, their mother warns them to beware the big bad pig. But the little wolves' increasingly sturdy dwellings are no match for the persistent porker, who has more up his sleeve than huffing and puffing. It takes a chance encounter with a flamingo pushing a wheelbarrow full of flowers to provide a surprising and satisfying solution to the little wolves' housing crisis. Eugene Trivizas's hilarious text and Helen Oxenbury's enchanting watercolors have made this delightfully skewed version of the traditional tale a contemporary classic.

      Escrito en 1865, Alicia en el País de las Maravillas es un clásico no sólo de la literatura juvenil, sino de la literatura en general. Popularizado por las decenas de versiones que de él se han llevado a cabo, el relato que el reverendo Charles Dodgson, verdadero nombre de Lewis Carrol, escribiera para la niña Alicia Liddell, de diez años, es un delicioso entramado de situaciones verosímiles y absurdas, metamorfosis insólitas de seres y ambientes, juegos con el lenguaje y con la lógica y asociaciones oníricas que hacen de él un libro inolvidable.

      Auch ich werde gross: Der kleine Junge lebt mit seiner Mama, einem Hundebaby und ein paar Küken auf dem Lande. Er freut sich über alles, was wächst: die Knospen an den Bäumen, die Frühlingsblumen, die Küken, und natürlich sein Hundebaby. Doch im nächsten Frühling stellt er fest, dass alles gewachsen ist, ausser ihm; er scheint gleich gross geblieben zu sein. Mama erklärt ihm, dass Tiere und Pflanzen eben schneller wachsen. Kritisch und ungeduldig betrachtet sich der kleine Junge im Spiegel und fängt an zu zweifeln. Ob er wohl immer so klein bleibt? Als er aber im nächsten Herbst die letztjährigen Winterkleider anprobiert, stellt er freudig fest, dass sie ihm alle zu klein geworden sind. Die Hosen kneifen, und die Jackenärmel sind zu kurz. Tatsächlich, er ist gewachsen. Viele Kinder leiden an ihrem verzögerten Wachstum und sehnen sich danach, endlich gross zu werden. Das in den 1940-ger Jahren getextete heute eher altmodisch wirkende Bilderbuch setzt sich durch aussagekräftige, feinfühlig bebilderte Texte behutsam mit diesem Problem auseinander und führt gleichzeitig durch alle Jahreszeiten auf dem Lande. Ab 3 Jahren, ***, Silvia Zanetti.
