Cover Story
This month BfK features Jane Ray’s cover for The Twelve Dancing Princesses. We’re particularly delighted to have the opportunity to use this illustration as it enables us to say HAPPY BIRTHDAY to Orchard Books - they’re 10 this year! And also to thank them for their help in producing our July cover.
Ten Out of Bed
For all fans of Penny Dale's Ten in the Bed, this is a must. The book uses the same toy animals but this time we explore the imaginary fantasy of each - ranging through Bear's choice of Pirates, Sheep's idea of heaven as starring in Come Dancing to Croc's game of Ghosts! There's so much to talk about on every page until, tired and sleepy, one by one, the bed is full of the sleeping friends. Penny Dale's illustrations are always stunning, but her text is also 'special'.
