Inhaltsangabe:
Allan Ahlberg's fanciful tale, paired with beautifully detailed artwork by Gillian Tyler, invites children to see the world from a different perspective.
Here is the story Grandma tells one evening on her wide veranda steps. It has Michael and Hannah and the disappearing baby in it, a tigerish bird,
raindrops like sacks of water, and the hugest apple you ever saw. Oh yes . . . and the Snail House. So gather round, climb up now into Grandma’s lap. Darkness is falling, the air is still, and the story is just about to begin.
With rhythmic text and intricate illustrations, renowned author Allan Ahlberg and illustrator Gillian Tyler have crafted a magical tale about the joys of seeing the world up close—and of sharing stories.
Über die Autorin bzw. den Autor:
Allan Ahlberg is one of the most acclaimed and successful authors
of children’s books, particularly in partnership with his wife Janet, who died in 1994. Among his numerous classic picture books are THE JOLLY
POSTMAN books, BURGLAR BILL, EACH PEACH PEAR PLUM, and PEEPO!
Gillian Tyler is highly regarded as an illustrator, particularly for her detailed miniatures of the natural world. "What I enjoyed most about illustrating THE SNAIL HOUSE," she says, "was the challenge I faced in observing and drawing nature from such a close point of view."
