Hardback. Etat : Good. An ordinary day turns into an extraordinary adventure for three friends lying in the grass watching the clouds pass by as Zip, Trik, and Flip set off to find where the world ends. The trio journeys across fantastical landscapes--a lakeside city on stilts, a mysterious and magical forest, a snowy mountaintop--with countless delightful details for young readers to discover. Along the way, they encounter helping hands and discouraging doubters, and each time they think they have reached the end of the world, it seems to move further away. The three friends maintain their spirit and determination, enjoying the journey as much as the destination before returning home again. Dek, Maria (illustrateur).…

Hardback. Etat : Very Good. Gregarious or shy, curious or placid, playful or retiring, all the animals in Traer Scott?s newest collection have one thing in common: a sparkling personality! This whimsical, soulful, and personal photo collection focuses on the lives of the farm animals we often take for granted. Scott introduces us to barnyard animals both familiar and lesser known, from cows, pigs, sheep, and chickens to Dolly the wooly llama, Bianca the Sicilian miniature donkey, Percy the Indian peafowl, and Justice the yak. Some of the animals are kept as pets; others are denizens of farm sanctuaries that Scott has visited. She shares her anecdotes about a Texas longhorn steer whose best friends are a trio of goats, a turkey who likes to snack on grapes and watermelon, and many others. Lively captions provide information on each breed, to round out this enchanting tribute to our four-legged (and winged) friends from the farm.…
