Look! A Book: Little Hare Books - Tapa dura

An exhilarating picture book read from dream-team pairing Libby Gleeson and Freya Blackwood.

When two ragamuffins stumble across a book in the dust their world begins to change. The familiar becomes fantastical, the mundane becomes magical, and a fractured community finds a focus.

Set in a dreary, underprivileged, contemporary world, Look, A Book! is a whirl through the magic of imagination, encouraging young children to explore, be inspired and immerse themselves in stories.

Libby Gleeson Libby Gleeson was born in a small town in south-western NSW. Libby has been awarded armfuls of Australian book and she has also scooped her fair share of International awards, including the Bologna Ragazzi Award. It is not surprising that in 1997 Libby was presented the Lady Cutler Award for Services to Children's Literature. Freya Blackwood Freya Blackwood is a rising star in the international world of children’s books. She was born in Edinburgh, Scotland and grew up in Orange in NSW, Australia. One of Freya’s more recent titles Amy & Louis (written by Libby Gleeson) won the 2007 CBCA Picture Book of the Year for Younger Readers, and was published in Australia, US, Germany, France and Korea.
