Seb and Mama go to visit Mr.s Kenny, but there's a dog called Hamish at the house too. Woof woof, says Hamish. "Home," says Seb in a little voice. While Mama and Mrs. Kenny have tea, Hamish is shut in another room and Seb plays with his train set. He gets so absorbed he forgets all about Hamish - until a piece of his cookie slips under the door. Seb puts his finger through the gap, peeps under the door, and two gentle eyes look back at him. "Hello, Hamish," says Seb. When it's time to go home, Mama looks everywhere for Seb. Where could he be? Seb and Hamish are found at last, curled up together, fast asleep!

O Sol castigou a vila em que Lila, uma menina do Quênia, morava durante muitos meses. Ninguém conseguia juntar lenha, capinar o jardim ou mesmo tirar o leite da vaca. Sem chuva, o poço começou a secar, e todas as plantações se perderam. Lila estava tão preocupada que, quando seu avô contou para ela, bem baixinho, sobre o segredo da chuva, ela saiu correndo para falar diretamente com o céu.

Lila E O Segredo Da Chuva

One day a tired old elephant plods out of the forest and falls asleep in a farmer's barn. Amid the ensuing commotion, six curious blind mice enter the fray: '... An elephant is like a wall, ' says the oldest mouse, as he falls against the elephant's massive, solid side. 'No, ' says a younger mouse, touching one of the sharp tusks. 'An elephant is like a spear!' A tree... a rope... a snake? Each mouse has his or her own interpretation after touching different parts of the elephant. But then the huge creature awakes - and only then is the full wonder of his being revealed. Based on a classic Indian fable, Jude Daly's new picture book, set in the South African countryside, is an inspiring, multi-layered allegory.
