Paper Chase (HB)

A captivating paper chase, and an unforgettable adventure
. . .
Two children meet under a tall tree. James has a book. Ginger
has a paper plane. They become friends . . . but then they're parted.
Will they ever meet again?

  But this isn't just James and Ginger's story: it's a paper
  chase!


  Much-loved storyteller Julia Donaldson weaves
  the children's tale of friendship into the amazing story of how
  paper is made.


  With perfect, read-aloud rhymes and glowing
  illustrations by Victoria Sandoy, this is
  a story of friendship and adventure like no other.





  Gruffalo author Julia Donaldson has created a
  heartfelt, joyful story with a totally unique twist


  Children will be fascinated to see the remarkable journey
  of one tall tree as it's turned into paper, and becomes
  all sorts of things that we use, from bags and boxes to letters,
  cards and books

  Julia Donaldson's perfect, read-aloud rhymes
  are brought gorgeously to life by acclaimed illustrator, Victoria
  Sandoy. The warm, richly atmospheric illustrations
  are brimming with exquisite details

  Praise for The Christmas Pine, also by Julia Donaldson
  and Victoria Sandoy: "Magical . . . as well as paying tribute
  to tradition, the gentle rhythmic verse and stunning pictures
  illuminate the two other things close to Julia's heart: the power
  of children and song"
