Snug as a Hug: An Australian LullabyMarcia Vaughan. Illus Pamela Lofts

RRP: $24.99

Joey is sleeping curled up in Mum’s pouch.

Koala is resting on a limb like a couch.

Turtle is dreaming far out in the sea.

Cockatoo is yawning high up in a tree.

I’ll stay close-by all through the night.

So sleep well, my small one.

I love you … I love you … I love you …

Sleep tight.

Join all the animals as they settle down to rest. From echidnas to spiders, dolphins and more, this is a book full of quintessentially Australian animals in lots of different Australian environments. The gently rhyming text is enhanced by Pamela Lofts’ beautiful pencil illustrations, which are at times bright and colourful, at other times soothing and sweet, and at all times creating a warm and loving atmosphere.

Super Simple Sewing RRP: $18.99

Little kids are fascinated by sewing and can’t wait to try it for themselves. But it can be awfully tricky, what with the knot-tying and scissors and needles and such. Good thing there is Super Simple Sewing. When we say ‘super simple’, we mean it. Perforated sewing cards get kids started on the ins-and-outs of sewing. Our custom-designed round-point needle is easy to thread, and pre-cut fabric makes piecing a breeze for novice sewers. Best of all, snap-together cord-catchers cinch the string at the beginning and end, so there is no need for knots. With Super Simple Sewing, kids can sew a ribbon-handled purse, a puffy heart necklace, a beautiful bracelet, two greeting cards and a door tag. And if you think those are cute, wait till you see that ‘look what I did’ sparkle in the eyes of the kid that made them.

My [Not-So] Perfect Life Karen Phillips

RRP: $24.99Every girl wishes she had a perfect life, with perfect clothes, perfect friends, perfect parents and perfect hair. Especially perfect hair. But, in real life, the typical tween’s life is better than perfect—it is interesting. So interesting that it deserves to be recorded in all its glorious imperfection. My [Not-So] Perfect Life celebrates a tween’s real life, bumps and all. It is a journal fi lled with friendly, funny writing prompts designed to overcome blank-page anxiety. Love, destiny, parents, friends, going to school, being cool—no subject is off limits. A sparkly pencil in a handy holster, funky and funny artwork and text with an ever-so-slightly smart-alec attitude make writing on these pages just about irresistible. To embody the concept, the title on the cover transforms to read ‘My Perfect Life’ or ‘My [Not-So] Perfect Life’ depending on the angle of your approach. (There’s a metaphor for you!) In a world of pressure to act and look and be perfect in every way, this friendly prompted journal gives girls a way to celebrate their not-so-perfect selves.
