Book Description
Beatrix Potter's timeless character Peter Rabbit comes to life in a brand new series based on the well-loved children's books. Mischievous, charming and brave, Peter is a hero who overcomes obstacles, outwits predators and dodges danger on his exciting adventures. Featuring imagery in soft pastel hues and set amidst the sweeping landscapes of the Lake District, The Tale of the Secret Treehouse sees Peter and his friends embark on a brave and dangerous quest for a secret clubhouse to escape the clutches of the hungry fox, Mr Tod. To help him on his adventures, Peter is never without his cousin Benjamin Bunny and their good friend Lily Bobtail. Lots of their friends (and enemies) will be familiar to lovers of Beatrix Potter's timeless animal tales, such as bonkers Squirrel Nutkin, kindly Mrs Tiggy-Winkle and the scary farmer, Mr McGregor. Peter Rabbit is a character that children will be able to relate to. To him, like them, friendship is paramount and he is never far away from fun, mischief and adventure. There are so many extras in here. We've borrowed Peter's secret notebook, and put his sketch of Nutkin's crazy squirrel camp in the book too. It's a great picture, and will take the reader right to the heart of the story. There's also a map showing where everyone lives, and a chance to get to know the characters too.

Book Description
Make small changes to your surroundings and create extraordinary happiness in your life with groundbreaking research from designer and TED star Ingrid Fetell Lee. Next Big Idea Club selection—chosen by Malcolm Gladwell, Susan Cain, Dan Pink, and Adam Grant as one of the "two most groundbreaking new nonfiction reads of the season!" "This book has the power to change everything! Writing with depth, wit, and insight, Ingrid Fetell Lee shares all you need to know in order to create external environments that give rise to inner joy." —Susan Cain, author of Quiet and founder of Quiet Revolution Have you ever wondered why we stop to watch the orange glow that arrives before sunset, or why we flock to see cherry blossoms bloom in spring? Is there a reason that people—regardless of gender, age, culture, or ethnicity—are mesmerized by baby animals, and can't help but smile when they see a burst of confetti or a cluster of colorful balloons? We are often made to feel that the physical world has little or no impact on our inner joy. Increasingly, experts urge us to find balance and calm by looking inward—through mindfulness or meditation—and muting the outside world. But what if the natural vibrancy of our surroundings is actually our most renewable and easily accessible source of joy? In Joyful, designer Ingrid Fetell Lee explores how the seemingly mundane spaces and objects we interact with every day have surprising and powerful effects on our mood. Drawing on insights from neuroscience and psychology, she explains why one setting makes us feel anxious or competitive, while another fosters acceptance and delight—and, most importantly, she reveals how we can harness the power of our surroundings to live fuller, healthier, and truly joyful lives.
