Monster från havets djup

"Upplev monster i 3D. Med hjälp av datorn reser sig havets dolda jättar ur boken, rör sig fritt och vrålar högt - så vi verkligen kan se dem.När vi tänker på monster förknippar vi dem ofta med varelser som hör hemma i det förflutna eller i rysare - inte i verkligheten. Men monster finns faktiskt också på riktigt, vilket boken Monster från havets djup visar. De flesta gömmer sig i världshaven och det är därför vi människor sällan står öga mot öga med ett verkligt monster. Boken tar med läsaren långt ned i det nästan bottenlösa havet och ser på jättarna som bor i detta otillgängliga område. Böckerna Levande dinosaurier och Monster från havets djup vänder sig till barn men 3D-animationen, som får dessa gigantiska djur att verka så levande, fascinerar säkert också vuxna. Med datorns pilknappar kan man nämligen själv få de stora djuren att röra sig och på så sätt studera dem på mycket nära håll. Tekniken är enkel. Det enda man behöver är en dator och en webbkamera. I boken finns en liten symbol tryckt på sidorna som fungerar som en streckkod. Webbkameran skannar streckkodsymbolen och gör därigenom djuren levande - bokstavligt talat. Men det är ganska lätt att få havsmonstren och dinosaurierna att försvinna igen. Man behöver bara stänga boken."

A picture book of great beauty and hope about the power we have to transform our world.On a mean street in a mean city, a thief tries to snatch an old woman’s bag. But she finds she can’t have it without promising something in return – to “plant them all”. When it turns out the bag is full of acorns, the young thief embarks on a journey that changes her own life and the lives of others for generations to come. Inspired by the belief that a relationship with nature is essential to every human being, and that now, more than ever, we need to renew that relationship, The Promise is the story of a magical discovery that will touch the heart and imagination of every reader, young and old. With poignant simplicity, honesty and lyricism, Nicola Davies evokes a powerful vision of a world where people and nature live in harmony. And Laura Carlin's delicate illustrations capture a young girl’s journey from a harsh, urban reality to the beauty and vitality of a changed world.

One day Ariki catches sight of a strange creature in the water, bigger than any she’s seen before – soon after, an enormous shark tooth is found on the sand. When a group of giant sharks start circling the shore, the island’s fishermen are too afraid to go out to sea. Without fish the people will starve... Can Ariki save the day?

After getting lost at sea in a tropical storm, Ariki and Ipo discover an uncharted island and have a great adventure in the second book of the Ariki series.Ariki and Ipo are making the most of a beautiful day, sailing the sea near Turtle Island on a “borrowed” boat. They’re too busy daydreaming to spot the grey clouds gathering overhead – but then a terrible storm breaks, carrying them miles from home. After days without food or drink, they are washed up on an unfamiliar island. The island is beautiful beyond belief: they see butterflies, each one lovelier than the last, lizards chasing across the rocks and, most wonderful of all, a gigantic blue bird with eyes that glow purple. When they meet another castaway, however, the children discover this island is no paradise – there are dangers lurking in the shadows! A nail-biting adventure with a strong message about endangered animals and human intervention, and a wonderful partner to Ariki and the Giant Shark."Zoologist Davies's love of the natural world shines through in this wonderful book...

A powerful and necessary picture book – the journey of a child forced to become a refugee when war destroys everything she has ever known.Imagine if, on an ordinary day, war came. Imagine it turned your town to rubble. Imagine going on a long and difficult journey – all alone. Imagine finding no welcome at the end of it. Then imagine a child who gives you something small but very, very precious... When the government refused to allow 3000 child refugees to enter this country in 2016, Nicola Davies was so angry she wrote a poem. It started a campaign for which artists contributed drawings of chairs, symbolising a seat in a classroom, education, kindness, the hope of a future. The poem has become this book, movingly illustrated by Rebecca Cobb, which should prove a powerful aid for explaining the ongoing refugee crisis to younger readers.

It’s April in Antarctica and, in places so remote that they can only be seen by satellites, lines of Emperor Penguins appear in search of the perfect ice for raising their chicks. A wise old Empress has returned to the ice at Halley Bay year after year; with the help of her mate, she works to protect her newly-laid egg against the bitter winter. But a changing climate is making the Antarctic Ocean warmer – winds are stronger and storms are fiercer... With luminous illustrations and an introduction by climate scientist Dr Phil Trathan, this is the true story of how the Emperor penguin colony at Halley Bay was disrupted after the sea ice collapsed, and how it’s necessary to protect the environment so that these extraordinary survivors will continue to be found in the Antarctic for generations to come."Nicola Davies is one of the best children's writers in the business."
