 (This ebook is optimised for Kindle tablets and the Kindle App. It is not suitable for e-Ink kindle devices, such as the PaperWhite. We recommend you download a sample to your device before purchase if in doubt.)

 Collaborating once more with iconic artist, Michael Foreman, Morpurgo's poems are inspired by The Carnival of the Animals - a humorous musical by the French composer Camille Saint-Saëns. Building on this classic framework, Michael has added many more animals - they speak in their own voices, full of humour and brio, to tell of their lives and the impact of humanity on their habitats.

 With full colour illustrations throughout, this celebrated partnership has created a gift book with a strong ecological message that will also ignite a love of poetry in young readers and will appeal to fans of The Lost Words. Above all it is a celebration of the natural world in verse, a book to treasure and to inspire.

 Michael Morpurgo has sold over 35 million books globally, many of them illustrated by Michael Foreman.

Carnival of the Animals - A Whole New World of Animal Poems

Un chant d'espoir pour notre planète par deux auteurs incontournables de la littérature jeunesse.

La grande chorale du monde

L'histoire vraie de deux frères dans la tourmente de la Seconde Guerre mondiale. 

Même s'ils sont frères, Francis et Pieter ont toujours été très différents. Lorsque la guerre éclate en 1939, ils choisissent deux chemins opposés : l'un est pacifiste, l'autre s'engage comme soldat dans la Royal Air Force et part au combat. La suite de l'histoire va bouleverser leurs vies pour toujours. Et Francis doit se jeter à son tour dans la gueule du loup. 

"Ce qu'ont affronté mes deux oncles m'a profondément marqué. Ce livre est, d'une certaine façon, le plus personnel que j'aie jamais écrit." 

Michael Morpurgo 

"La voilà enfin dévoilée, la pierre fondatrice de l'ouvre de Morpurgo le pacifiste !"

 Albertine, Goose Queen:"Good morning, Madam, I've come to eat you. Your friends have all gone. There's no one to help you now. They're all very stupid, aren't they?"

Cock-A-Doodle-Do!

Joey is a warhorse, but he wasn't always. Once, he was a farm horse and a gentle boy named Albert was his master. Then World War I came storming through and everything changed. Albert's father sells Joey to the army where the beautiful, red-bay horse is trained to charge the enemy, drag heavy artillery, and carry wounded soldiers not much older than Albert off of battlefields. Amongst the clamoring of guns and slogging through the cold mud, Joey wonders if the war will ever end. And if it does, will he ever find Albert again?
