Alphabeasties

An ingenious way to help young ones learn to write, this book has the alphabet drawn out in animals. So there is an Octopus made of 'o's' and a penguin made of 'p's' as well as beasty advice on how to form your letter shapes. Super fun learning!

Shapes That Roll

A cool shiny book to help you learn your shapes!

Book of Cities

Here at the Hambledon we support the cutting edge in children's books and the classics, and this book belongs to the latter. This book was first published in 1975 and takes you on a comprehensive and exciting trip around the cities of the world, giving you a true flavour of what it is to be an explorer, an adventurer. Expect amazing dreams after this one.

Manners Can Be Fun

Sometimes children need a little guidance on becoming the little angels they so dearly want to be - this wonderful book imparts some 30's style wisdom on how not to become a 'squealing pig', a 'noisey' or, worst of all, a 'whiney'!

Nancy Volume 1

Taken from the Nancy comic strips of '57-8, you can again join Nancy and co. on her tales of adventure as she tries to be scheming and honest! Sweetly funny, this volume provides hours of enjoyment.

Oops!

Trying to get away on holiday can be very trying indeed! However, I doubt you will ever have had such an adventure trying to get to the airport as the family in Oops.

Up & Down New York

Tony Sarg's drawings were originally made in 1926 and captured New York in its first heyday. Capturing life in iconic places - both lost and enduring, this is a magical book in its reality and reveals a sense of time, place and people that may otherwise be forgotten. As if you can't tell, one of our favourites!

How to Speak Politely- and why

This book is a classic and shows that it is an age-old problem to try and get children to speak properly. By encouraging children to hate those naughty words like 'yeah' and feel sorry for forgetting to add the lovely letter 'g' to the ends of words, their language should improve infinitely! As an added bonus, the question of 'why?' is also answered! Thank you Munro!

What Colour is your world?

Things don't always have to be as they appear. Bob Gill encourages the imagination and senses in this vivid childrens book.
