The Chinese puzzle tangram has only seven pieces. And yet you can create so many figures with it. Almost anything can be depicted with tangram. The boy in this story doesn't believe it, until he suddenly makes a cat that works out very well. A whole world is created under his hands. But the cat remains so quiet. Is he happy? Suddenly I understood the cat. 'You want someone to play with!' I said. The cat still said nothing. But I knew I was right. Determined, the boy puzzles a friend for the cat. But that is easier said than done... Everything in this book consists of the seven tangram pieces. By painting the surfaces, Martijn van der Linden brings the figures to life - you would sometimes almost forget that they are made of puzzle pieces. With the tangram that is included at the back of the book, you can recreate any figure and design new characters yourself. Awarded with the Silver Griffel and Silver Brush. Voted one of the best designed books of 2016.

Watch out! Make way!
I am SUPER OWL.
I'm hungry.
And here I come!

Watch out, because there he is, the most dangerous creature of the night: Super Owl!

Super Owl is no ordinary owl - not at all - he can disguise himself like no other! And he uses that talent to get food. He disguises himself as a carrot to lure a rabbit, as a sheep to trick a lamb and as a birdbath to trick a pigeon. But... his evil plans fail time and time again. Fortunately, Super Owl eventually manages to conquer his ultimate prey.

A delightful picture book that will make both children and adults laugh out loud.

Go on a walk in the forest with brave Little Mouse. Little Mouse wants to go on a journey of discovery, in the forest that is. 'Don't go into the forest!' said Rabbit. 'It's scary there and there are all kinds of big dangerous animals.' 'I'm not afraid,' said Little Mouse. 'Not even of big dangerous animals. I may be small, but I'm not afraid of anything!' And that shows, because no matter how wild the animals are, Little Mouse is not scared. No wolf, no bear, no moose can scare her. Until she comes to a cute little house in the forest... there is something that Little Mouse didn't expect. 'HELLO!' Little Mouse looked for a house, ate the moon and saw a red marble - and now she is not afraid. Or is she?
