"On the day he was born, before he could crawl, the boy who knew nothing, knew nothing at all." There is a boy who knows nothing at all - everyone tells him so. One day he discovers a strange creature in his parents' wardrobe and - surprise, surprise - he doesn't know what it is. The funny thing is that his mum and dad can't tell him either. Determined to identify his new friend, the boy who knows nothing sets out on a quest for information! A superbly surreal picture book from the author and illustrator of The Elephant in the Room.
"The third edition of Ecology and Classification of North American Freshwater Invertebrates continues the tradition of in-depth coverage of the biology, ecology, phylogeny, and identification of freshwater invertebrates from the USA and Canada. This text serves as an authoritative single source for a broad coverage of the anatomy, physiology, ecology, and phylogeny of all major groups of invertebrates in inland waters of North America, north of Mexico." --Book Jacket.
Dog on Stilts is a barmy, rhyming story about an ambitious dog on a journey toward self-acceptance. Medium Dog was just an average, everyday dog. He wasn't particularly tall or spotty or interesting in any way. At least that's what he thought. So he dreamt up an ingenious way to become extraordinary, a dog to be noticed at last. But while Medium Dog's plan brought him a certain elevated status it couldn't last. Eventually he fell back down to earth again and with a bump. But the experience did teach him the most valuable of lessons, that you can never be ordinary as long as you're loved.

The Weasel Puffin Unicorn Baboon Pig Lobster Race race is a psychedelic children's story best described as, 'Doctor Doolittle meets Sergeant Pepper'. It's a zany story of a race as feverishly competitive as any held before or since.
