Books with title At the Seaside

It's the summer holidays and David visits the seaside with his annoying cousin Sarah. Caught by the tide they escape when David finds another time tunnel but he is almost as surprised as Sarah when he realises they have not gone back to Roman times. Sarah's quick thinking gets them out of a tight spot but there are some mysteries that will never be solved. Kids from 8-12 should be able to read this to themselves and have fun while learning some interesting real history.

Miffy's uncle has come to visit and is going to take her on a trip. They fly up high and see the world from above.Award-winning UK poet, Tony Mitton, has worked closely with Dick Bruna's Dutch publisher to create new translations for the classic Miffy stories that are true to the books' original voice, and yet have a contemporary feel to the language that makes them appealing to the modern young audience. The translations beautifully convey the warmth and friendliness of the original Dutch whilst maintaining a style that is inimitably Miffy.
