About this deal

Though there are "baddies" who try to scare the girl and turn her to stone, the girl is not at all bothered by them, so young readers will not be, either.

But the little girl quickly shows them that you don't have to be big to be brave, and baddies don't always win. Yesterday a parent came over to tell me how impressed she was by the book fair and that you did a fabulous job of selling the books to the children first. This fantastic activity book is based on the brilliant new picture book The Baddies, by Julia Donaldson and Axel Scheffler. Your words, like your reviews, bring books to life and give them a voice before the front cover is even turned. After all, the witch longs to make magic, while the ghost plans to haunt her and the troll has plans for ‘ his big bulgy belly‘!It’s a fantastic independent book seller that will actually be responsive and select appropriate books for you.

I think her reactions were genuine and she was just doing what felt natural in the moment--which makes it even funnier to me, that she was thwarting them without even trying! Yourself and Bob are much cherished in our booky world and I personally really appreciate everything that you do.I studied Drama and French at Bristol University, where I met Malcolm, a guitar-playing medic to whom I’m now married. A LITTLE BIT BRAVE is a funny, reassuring picture book which shows that we're all a lot braver than we think. Perfect read-aloud rhyming text and stunning pictures on every page with lots of details to spot Julia and Axel are the team that have created picture book favourites such as The Gruffalo, Stick Man, Zog and Highway Rat – all of which have been made into animated films premiering on BBC1 Christmas Day.

It is accepted by you that Daunt Books has no control over additional charges in relation to customs clearance. This clever and funny inversion on a classic fairytale from award-winning author Bethan Stevens tells the laugh-out-loud story of a damsel who does not need saving! You guys are such a force for good and I am a passionate supporter of Indie booksellers, so I'm so happy this worked out well (I'd love to know how many books were sold if you have it to hand - it felt like quite a lot!Julia and Axel are the team that have created picture book favourites such as The Gruffalo, Stick Man, Zog and Highway Rat – all of which have been made into animated films premiering on BBC1 Christmas Day.

Published just in time for Halloween, I had great hopes for this story featuring a ghost and a witch (and a troll).My only question is why are the endpapers purple with white polka dots, when the handkerchief that was the main element in the story was blue with white polka dots? He has enjoyed particular success in his award-winning picture book collaborations with Julia Donaldson, but is also the best-selling illustrator of novelty books such as The Bedtime Bear.
