But Goldilocks went into the forest anyway...The simple and engaging text is accompanied by the colourful illustrations of Mike and Carl Gordon, taken from the popular "First Reading" series. It is a wonderful gift to be shared again and again.

The Gingerbread Man (Picture Books)
A delightful picture book retelling the classic tale for younger children. Run, run as fast as you can, you can't catch him, he's the Gingerbread Man!

The Firebird (Picture Books)
Prince Ivan sets off in search of the Firebird, which has been stealing his father's golden apples, in this traditional Russian folktale.

Aladdin (Picture Books)
When Aladdin finds his long-lost uncle, he is promised riches beyond his dreams. But is everything what it seems? The ancient tale of mystery, magic and adventure, with dusty lamps, beautiful princesses and wish-granting genies, is brought to life in this picture book with stunning illustrations by Lorena Alvarez.

Under the Sea (Usborne Picture Storybooks)
This picture book takes the reader on a journey all the way through the sea from one shore to another far across the world. From a bustling bright coral reef (by day and by night), out into the open sea to swim alongside giant whales, and diving down and down to discover what lives in the deepest darkest part of the ocean. This book introduces a child to the wonders of the sea and all kinds of sealife. The stunning images and lyrical text will leave a lasting impression, and can be treasured again and again.
