Meet the Weather 

Caryl Hart 

Waterstones Says  

Following Meet the Planets and Meet the Oceans, Hart and Woollvin take little ones on a spectacular tour of the weather in this colourful and energetic picture book.

WHOOOOSH!

We're off on an exciting adventure in our hot-air balloon to say hello to all the different kinds of weather that make up our world.

Join in with the rhymes and get ready to meet everything from whooshing wind to bright rainbows and shimmering sunshine. Little ones will be swept away on an unforgettable journey in this striking, action-packed picture book.

This bold, bright follow-up to the acclaimed picture books Meet the Planets and Meet the Oceans is packed with gorgeous illustrations of everything from rainy rainforests to snowy mountains and stormy seas.

Combining STEM learning with a rhyming twist, it's perfect for all little meteorologists!

Planet Omar: Accidental Trouble Magnet

Zanib Mian 

Waterstones Says  

Welcome, readers, to the imaginative brain of Omar! You might not know me yet, but once you open the pages of this book you'll laugh so hard that snot will come out of your nose (plus you might meet a dragon and a zombie - what more could you want?).

My parents decided it would be a good idea to move house AND move me to a new school at the same time. As if I didn't have a hard enough time staying out of trouble at home, now I've also got to try and make new friends. What's worse, the class bully seems to think I'm the perfect target.

At least Eid's around the corner which means a feast (YAY) and presents (DOUBLE YAY). Well, as long as I can stay in Mum and Dad's good books long enough...

The combination of Zanib Mian's hilarious text and Nasaya Mafaridik's fantastic cartoon-style illustrations make the PLANET OMAR series perfect for fans of Tom Gates and Wimpy Kid.
