Leo Timmers Knihy

Pestrobarevná knížka od Lea Timmerse je plná hravých rýmů a vtipných překvapení, které ukrývají stíny. Uprostřed noci se tři rytíři vydali hledat draka. Najít toto nebezpečné zvíře jim netrvalo dlouho. Ve tmě však není vše tak, jak se může zdát...

Pestrobarevná knížka od Lea Timmerse je plná hravých rýmů, vtipných vozidel a překvapivých opičích kousků. Táta Opičák a jeho synek cestují v hustém provozu. Vozidla se však vlečou pomalu jako hlemýždi! Malý Opičák nevydrží tak dlouho čekat a tak se vyšvihne ze svého bezpečného sedadla, zhoupne se na hasičském žebříku na jeřáb, přeskočí úklidový vůz a dopadne rovnou na kapotu taxíku. Silnice je jedno velké hřiště!

A lovely little picture book with beautiful illustrations that children will love.

"The kind crocodile leaves the pond to see the world. Animals are in danger out there! A terrified mouse, a frightened hog and an antelope take shelter on Crocodile's long back"--Page [4] of cover

Caught in a storm, Elephant washes up on a tiny island. Along comes Mouse in a little dingy and Elephant steps aboard . . . uh-oh! They use the wreckage to make the island bigger. And here's Dog--can this boat take Elephant's weight? Uh-oh! None of the animals can save the shipwrecked Elephant but each broken vessel provides new materials for another intricate construction. Wheels and pulleys create a Ferris wheel, an elevator, a waffle maker. Soon there is a whole community and enough space for everyone! As in any Leo Timmers picture book, Elephant Island has many layers of discovery. Each new building is a magical fun park packed with mechanical detail and busy animals all working together.

One Morning Tortoise suddenly finds himself wearing a crown. 'I am the King!' he says. His friends can't stop laughing. Goat, Flamingo, Snake, Pig, Crocodile, Elephant and Ape each think they would make a perfect king.

Bear can't find his glasses. He must have left them at Giraffe's house. On the way over, Bear sees all kinds of animals he didn't notice last time: an elephant, a crocodile, a flamingo, a deer. And who's this long spotty snake lying on Giraffe's deckchair? The patient Giraffe finds Bear's glasses--right where glasses always get lost, perched on his head. Then Bear takes Giraffe to meet these wondrous animals that he found on the way. Leo Timmers' details are full of expression and humor--the angle of Giraffe's neck and lift of his eyebrows, hiding his skepticism as he helps his friend, the dear, artless bear. Through an ingenious telling of this classic comical situation, Leo Timmers shows us how to enjoy the world through different eyes.
