National Trust: Look What I Found on the Farm 

Moira Butterfield

Waterstones says:

Discover a world of wonder on a farmyard walk, with this beautiful picture book from the National Trust. Today we're on the farm.

Let's go!
Past the gate where daisies grow...
Look what I found!
A tuft of sheep's wool, soft as a woolly jumper.    

Set off on a farmyard adventure to find natural treasure, from a fluffy chick feather to a broken eggshell, then learn more about the found object with irresistibly illustrated and informative nature notes.    

Packed full of fascinating facts alongside a gentle rhyming narrative and encouraging children to get outside and explore their surroundings, this is a nature treasure hunt series for the whole family to treasure!    

Other titles in the series include: Look What I Found in the Woods and Look What I Found at the Seaside.    

Every Nosy Crow paperback picture book comes with a free 'Stories Aloud' audio recording - just scan the QR code and listen along!

Trixie Pickle Art Avenger

Olaf Falafel   

Waterstones says:

  • 'This is a GREAT book! Funny, charming, original, secretly educational.' Adam Kay
  • 'Funny, arty and just a little bit naughty, the Art Avenger is amazing!' Matt Lucas
  • 'Very funny . . . I learned tons about art and laughed A LOT' Joe Lycett


A laugh-out-loud illustrated adventure featuring Trixie Pickle, the Banksy of her school.

A weird sickness bug has been spreading through Wormwood Town and everyone is wondering if there's something in the water. Trixie Pickle Art Avenger uses the power of art to investigate - can she get to the bottom of the mystery around the town reservoir?

She's got a lot on her plate - being bored to sleep by Money Week at school, making comics with her best friend Beeks and finding a way to bring down the local mean girls - but with artistic inspiration from Botticelli, Damien Hirst and Kehinde Wiley, the Art Avenger is sure to win the day.

Highly illustrated throughout by Olaf and with fact files of hilarious and irreverent details about real artists such as Yayoi Kusama and Hokusai, Trixie Pickle is perfect for fans of Konnie Huq, Sam Copeland and Liz Pichon.
