Look up! All mountains rise high into the sky, but there is more to these landforms than meets the eye! Some form when two pieces of Earth's crust push up land. Erupting volcanoes form others. Some are growing, while others are shrinking. Give beginning readers all the need-to-know information about mountains, including their characteristics, how they form, and where they can be found around the world.

A Passing On of Shells: 50 Fifty-Word Poems 

Simon Lamb

Waterstones Says

Scallywag Press proudly present Simon Lamb's dazzling debut collection of poetry, featuring fifty luminous poems, each written in exactly fifty words, fully-illustrated throughout by much-loved former Children's Laureate Chris Riddell.

With subjects ranging from family, identity, and growing up, to the need for hope, the wonder of nature, and the very concept of poetry itself, Simon offers his poems as small nuggets of wisdom, warmth and wit to help readers of all ages navigate their lives.

Complementing the always-present three-dimensional sense of drama and interaction with the reader, every poem is gifted its own double page spread, each one exquisitely illustrated by Chris Riddell, with his distinctive insight and flair adding new layers of meaning and joy to these already magical poems.

A beautifully-produced hardback gift edition with textured cover, de-bossing and thick paper, this is a book to read, to keep, to love.
