Cover Story
Our cover this issue was created from the endpapers of the Blue Book and the Yellow Book of Hob Stories to be published by Walker Books later this year. Hob made his first appearance last year in the Red and Green Books of Stories about him by William Mayne. Patrick Benson who did the illustrations has just won the Mother Goose Award. For more details see Ed's Page (opposite) and the report of the Mother Goose Award (page 10). We are most grateful to Walker Books for help in using these illustrations.

New York is the setting for this book which gives an insight into the workings of a modern port through a simple straightforward text. Something of the bustle of such a place and the sheer size of modern freighters is caught in the limited-colour illustrations.
