Let’s Go

Are you ready for a dangerous adventure? The boy in this book needs you.

Yes, you, the reader really can help save the day. The boy’s mum thinks it’s just a quick trip to the corner shop, but there are dragons, sharks and even robbers to despatch … Let’s go!

Let’s Go

Charlotte Dematons

Join a boy on his adventurous trip to the shop

‘Let’s go,’ says the boy in the red jumper. The reader does just that, and becomes the centre of the action in this unfolding adventure…

A young boy with a wild imagination makes a trip to the corner shop to buy apples. It isn’t far. Indeed, it’s just a quick walk through the garden, but the boy’s sense of wonder transforms an everyday errand into an odyssey. In the garden, a small coppice becomes a huge, dark wood with fire-breathing dragons and a sleeping giant.

And a pond becomes the high seas teeming with sharks and marauding pirates.

‘Going to the store on a simple errand becomes an adventure, for narrator and viewer both, in this visual imagination stretcher.’

– Booklist

There’s a clever twist too. The boy asks the reader to join him on the expedition. Illustrations full of glorious detail show the scenes from above. The reader uses this birdseye perspective to guide the boy through the adventure and even lends a hand by turning the pages to escape looming danger!

Charlotte Dematons was born in France and studied at the Gerrit Rietveld Academy of Art in Amsterdam. She has illustrated many children’s books and won prestigious awards. Her work is renowned for its precision and warmth.

Annemarie van der Eem & Mark Janssen

I Want a Lion

Jules asks for all kinds of extraordinary pets.

In the end, he gets exactly the pet he wants!

Jules has a plan, a wild plan. He wants a pet, but first he has to convince his reluctant mum. Jules asks for a lion! Then he tries for a hippo. He even says he wants a goat. ‘OK, so what about a parrot?’ Jules asks...

Mark Janssen studied at the Maastricht Academy of Fine Arts and Design. He illustrates books for children and adults. His recent picture books Nothing Happened, Island and Dinos Don’t Exist took the picture book world by storm.

WWW.MARKJANSSEN.NL

Mark Janssen’s noisy, boisterous illustrations bring this romping story to life. Animals from Jules’ imagination swing and stomp on to the page, from a grinning gorilla to a huge hippo with yellow teeth. Children will love the fun premise of the book. And it won’t be long before parents are asked, ‘Please may I have a pet lion?’

Annemarie van der Eem had a successful hockey career in the Dutch Junior Team and played in the World Hockey Championships in Seoul. She’s now an author and journalist with her own copywriting company. I Want a Lion is Annemarie van der Eem’s first book with Lemniscaat. www.WOORDWIJF.NL 5

Piet Grobler

Francis and the Animals

Francis believed in the Good – an ode to nature

This is the story of Francis, who speaks with the animals. In this charming retelling of the life and teachings of this well-known saint, Piet Grobler delivers a simple and powerful message that transcends different cultures and religions. The book encourages young children to make the world a better place.

Piet Grobler has always been drawn to the figure of St Francis. He also feels a special bond with birds. Piet noticed that often a bird would sit beside him just before a special event in his life. The illustrations, which are full of warmth and a dream-like quality, reflect this personal connection with the story. Piet captures a joyful world that celebrates birds, beasts and the wonders of nature.

Piet Grobler was born in South Africa. He studied theology, journalism and graphic design. Piet has won many awards around the world for his illustrations, including in Italy and China. His previous titles published by Lemniscaat are Hey, Frog! and Antonia by Anke de Vries.

L E M N I S CAAT

Linde Faas, a virtuoso of humorous drawing, surprises, amazes and enchants her readers with her picture book debut Come with Me. A girl enters the bedroom of a boy carrying a balloon, drawing paper and pencils. Did he just wake up? Is he having a lazy day? Is he ill? You can make up your own story in this wordless picture book.

Let your imagination guide you while the children are whirled around the world – by the big balloon and their fantasy – past tropical birds and winter landscapes full of penguins, and from a colourful underwater world to a vibrant green jungle, until it is time to return home.

A book that will inspire thousands of stories: about reality and fantasy, about adventures and friendship, about the magic of drawing – the possibilities are endless.

A magnificent wordless picture book debut.

Linde Faas graduated with honours at the Academy of Art and Design St. Joost, Breda, the Netherlands. She works as an artist and animator of cartoons, and internationally as an illustrator. For Lemniscaat she illustrated, amongst others, the non-fiction titles Cola Fountains and Splattering Paint Bombs and Spurting Arteries and Flooding Oceans with Jesse Goossens.

‘Van Hout used wildly expressive fish to illustrate emotions in 2012’s Happy. Twelve pairs of equally exuberant monster friends do the job in this excellent companion book.’

– Publishers Weekly, starred review

‘With only a dozen or so words and spectacular images, Van Hout captures the landscape of friendship for toddlers through teens and beyond… conveys emotional heft and arresting images in an appealing, child-size package.’

Each spread features one emotionally charged word and a characterful scribbly illustration. There’s plenty to explore in the expressions of the monsters, whether it’s the mischievous delight of pinching a friend or the meaningful glance that says just how much you miss a special monster. Little monsters of all ages will love this book. Friends is Mies van Hout’s follow-up title to the hugely successful Happy.

Mies van Hout studied at the artschool in Groningen. She works as a freelance illustrator and graphic designer. Mies van Hout’s work has been published in more than twenty countries.

Maranke Rinck & Martijn van der Linden

I Feel a Foot!

There’s something in the field. Something rustling.

‘Come on,’ whispers Goat. ‘Let’s investigate.

On tiptoe. And stick together!’

Rinck / van der Linden • I FEEL A FOOT!

It’s pitch dark. There’s no moon. There’s not a star in the sky.

Maranke Rinck & Martijn van der Linden

I Feel a Foot!

Imaginations run wild as five friends try to find out who is making night noises…

Turtle and friends are fast asleep in their hammock. Suddenly, Turtle wakes up and whispers, ‘Do you hear what I hear?’

And so begins a detective tale with a twist. Who’s making the noise? The animals in the hammock – Turtle, Bat, Octopus, Bird and Goat – let their imaginations run riot.

Is it a giant bat? Or a bird with a huge beak? Perhaps it’s a tur-bat-octo-bird-billy? After much guessing, it turns out to be a friendly elephant. The animals invite Elephant to join them in their hammock and soon new wild imaginings about the night noises begin all over again. A witty nocturnal guessing game from the author-illustrator team who created Tangram Cat. 2008 Parent’s Choice Gold Award 2010 usbby Outstanding International Books

‘Rinck’s narrative is crisp and direct, and economical enough to be tackled by beginner readers, and Van der Linden’s illustrations are superb. ... A winner.’

– Kirkus Reviews

Maranke Rinck is a full-time author for children and adults. She works with her husband, the illustrator Martijn van der Linden, on her children’s stories.
