Joy Cowley’s favourite stories, poems and nonsense rhymes collected and reillustrated in a hardback gift volume for the family to treasure.

This is a book that will delight both younger readers and the older generations. Strutting ducks, exploding pumpkins, and a hungry ogre chewing glue stew all come to life with Clarkson’s imagining. The Gobbledegook Book is the kind of book that will be passed down generations of a family – timeless, joyous and heavy with memories. NZ Book Lovers

A picture book that takes the young reader into the jungle and immerses them in a filmic universe of mechanical wonders.

The pictures are intricately lined and rich with detail. Expansive images push beyond their edges to make grand use of the tall, rectangular trim. An imaginative fantasy that gives readers plenty of room to roam. Kirkus Reviews
