New Titles and Complete Catalogue

INTRODUCTION

Welcome to the Nosy Crow catalogue 2020 is set to be an exciting year for us in the Crow’s Nest. Winning Children’s Publisher of the Year at the 2019 British Book Awards has set the bar high for the coming year, but we’re certain that you’ll find lots of books to get excited about inside our new catalogue.

On our cover you might recognise two familiar faces: the mischievous duo from Ross Collins’ CILIP Amnesty award-winner, There’s a Bear on My Chair, return for more hilarity in There’s a Mouse in My House (p.115). In fact, our picture book list is full of treats from new and established authors and illustrators.

We welcome back Axel Scheffler’s much-loved Pip and Posy for a brand-new tale about toddler life in The Friendly Snail (p.59). Prize-winning Pamela Butchart and Kate Hindley join forces in the beautiful, funny and reassuring picture book Jeremy Worried About the Wind (p.98). Look out for a Shifty McGifty and Slippery Sam festive special in Santa’s Stolen Sleigh (p.116) as well as a lyrical picture book with a powerful message published with the National Trust, The Wide, Wide Sea (p.77) by Anna Wilson and Jenny Løvlie.

We’re also so delighted to be publishing Tiger, Tiger, Burning Bright! An Animal Poem for Every Day of the Year (p.96), inspired by the success of our 2018 nature poetry collection, I Am the Seed that Grew the Tree, which won the Waterstones Children’s Gift of the Year in 2018. It’s an exquisite collection of poems to share and treasure, chosen by Fiona Waters, but this time beautifully illustrated by the acclaimed Britta Teckentrup.

Swedish designer Ingela Arrhenius’ Felt Flaps series has proven a hit since its launch in 2017, with over 2 million copies sold worldwide, and you’ll spot lots of colourful new additions to the series in 2020: Where’s Baby Chick, Where’s Mrs Queen, Where’s Mr Pirate, Where’s Mrs T-Rex and Where’s Mrs Tiger (p.135). We’re also publishing a stylish new brilliantly interactive board series from Ingela that launches in June with Peekaboo Sun and Peekaboo Cow (p.55).

In July, the Olympics will be kicking off in Tokyo and we have the ultimate sporting companion: On Your Marks, Get Set, Gold! (p.49). Our non-fiction list covers a fascinating range of subjects, from an inspiring look at young people who’ve shaped our world in YouthQuake (p.103), through Building a Home (p.26), a unique picture book about construction, to learning about the human body in The Body Book (p.62) – which is complete with see-through acetate pages!

There is something for everyone in our fiction list: from taking your first steps as an independent reader with our hilarious heroine Magnificent Mabel (p.19) to getting lost in the jungle in Nizrana Farook’s amazing debut for 9+, The Girl Who Stole an Elephant (p.10). You’ll find brilliant new fiction from Fleur Hitchcock (p.68), Kirsty Applebaum (p.43), Catherine Bruton (p.54), S. E. Durrant (p.31) and Sally Nicholls (p.124). We’re also publishing the perfect gift book for all occasions, Writes of Passage: 100 Things to Read Before You Turn 13 (p.51), a powerful collection of words that matter, expertly curated by Nicolette Jones, the children’s book critic for The Sunday Times.

Our aim, as ever, is to produce high quality books that all children can enjoy – and we hope you’ll delight in exploring and sharing the bountiful range of books in this catalogue.

Full of heart and visual humor, this is a beautiful tale about change and the power of enduring friendship, from the creator of The Suitcase.

Beetle and Caterpillar are best friends.

Every day, they sit together on a big rock, sharing a picnic and looking out over the forest. But one day, Caterpillar goes missing and, try as he might, Beetle cannot find her. Just as he is about to give up hope, a very friendly (and rather familiar) butterfly appears out of nowhere. Can it be his friend?

She might look different but she is still just the same, and they are together again at last.

The forest was burning. Enormous orange flames curled around tree trunks and climbed into the canopy. The heat was intense and smoke filled the air. A hundred volunteer fire fighters – students, teachers and holiday-makers – had come from Jokkmokk, the nearest town, to help. As Greta watched the drama unfold on her television screen, they pointed hosepipes at blazing trees and blackened stumps. Above the crackle of flames and thud of falling branches, she could hear the thrum of a helicopter overhead, as its pilot desperately dropped water bombs to douse the flames.

It was July 2018. It had been a freakishly hot summer in Sweden, with a drought and the highest temperatures recorded in over 260 years. Wildfires had raged uncontrollably through the country’s forests. Jokkmokk is famous for its winter market, but even this area of Lapland at the Arctic Circle had not escaped the fires, the largest of which tore through an area the size of 900 football pitches.

In Greta’s home city, Stockholm, it had been the hottest summer since records began, with many days exceeding 30 degrees Celsius.

A month later, Greta sat at her kitchen table making preparations. She thought about the key facts people should know about global warming and, choosing her words carefully, neatly wrote out a stack of flyers. Then on a board she painted the words ‘School Strike for Climate’. Her parents tried to dissuade her, but the next morning, instead of heading off to school, she stuffed the flyers and some schoolbooks into her rucksack, jumped on to her bike and pedalled to the Swedish parliament building. She sat down outside, propping her sign up against the wall. People hurried by on their way to work, clutching briefcases and sipping from coffee cups. But if they noticed the slight girl with long brown pigtails, they didn’t stop to find out more.

Greta was skipping school to protest about climate change. All summer, she had followed news of Sweden’s wildfires and the heatwave that had killed hundreds of people across Europe. In 2015, Sweden had been one of 197 countries that
