A small girl listens to her older sister complaining about her bottom. Surely, it has not grown since last summer? Look! She can't even fit into her swimsuit. But, the small girl thinks her sister's bottom looks lovely, and asks her to consider the following: noses, mouths, ears and eyes are all shapes and sizes - and so are bottoms. Big bottoms are useful for crash landings and, if you are a queen, keeping you comfy while sitting on your throne for long periods. If you are a princess, however, a small bottom can be a boon for detecting peas under the mattress, but on the other hand, not so good for riding horses. From the author of "Jesus' Christmas Party" and "The Queens Knickers", this riotously funny picture book exposes the wonder of all kinds of bottoms - from Snow White's to Santa Claus'! Nicholas Allan is at his cheekiest and best, inviting you to be proud of your bum - it's the only one you've got!

Shovelling horse poo for pocket money sure does stink. It's worse than wiping tables at the ol' saloon and it's worse than untangling rope at Lasoos 'R' Us. But you're in the Wild West, these are the Sheriff's stables , and there's a hint of adventure hanging in the air (as well as a whiff of manure). The Sheriff's horse has giddy-upped into a cactus and caught the Itchity Fever. Someone will have to leave town to find him a cure and that someone is YOU. Will you climb mountains and cross deserts to help your four-legged friend? And can you mix the medicine in time for the rodeo? Good luck, intrepid StoryQuester - if anyone can save the Sheriff's horse, it's YOU.
