Following Mick Jackson and John Broadley' s glorious debut picture book, While You' re Sleeping, comes another special gift book. This book is all about the journey: more important than the destination. When you' re very young you' re almost always carried or pushed in a buggy. You never go very far on your own. But then, quite slowly, you learn to roll and crawl and wobble-walk and things really start to change. The winding, lyrical text follows a child' s growth through travel - from crawling to walking, skating to biking and then on to trains, boats and planes. It sparks conversations about their favourite places and how they get there. Discover more unusual journeys, like the journeys of animals. Reflect on the run of the rabbit, the flight of the bird and the tunnel of the mole. Every minute tiny journeys are going on around you. Think of the path of a bumblebee or a drop of rain on a window. Mick Jackson' s poetic prose and John Broadley' s detailed and unique illustrations make this another special book to read again and again, and treasure for years to come.
Mick Jackson is an award-winning novelist and screenwriter from Lancashire, UK. His first novel was shortlisted for the Booker Prize. He has recently started writing for children. John Broadley has been active in illustration and small press publishing since the mid 1990s. He works mostly in pen and ink and collage. His work has most recently been used to decorate the interiors, menus and branding for Quo Vadis restaurant Soho. The food and drink theme has continued through to a range of packaging and ceramics for the Fine Cheese Company and also wine labels for Gabb Family, Berry Bros & Rudd, and Fortnum & Mason. John has illustrated several food and historically themed books, as well as many magazines. While You' re Sleeping is his first children' s book.
