Award-winning author Toon Tellegen has written an enchanting collection of short stories, all centered on a series of poetic letters written by his animal protagonists. These fantastic, dreamlike, and even philosophical tales conjure up a world where the creatures of the earth can send mail to the sun (and get an answer); where you can actually write a letter to a letter; and where just writing something down can make it come true. Jessica Ahlberg's alluring artwork captures the unique spirit of these whimsical, charming fables.

Book Description
Three children go on a polar expedition in this thrilling adventure story for newly independent readers that blurs realism and imagination. Ida, Max, and Jack go to the creek one winter's day. They play on an ice floe then find themselves floating away—all the way to the polar ice, with just a box, a branch and some sandwiches. "You probably don't think it's true, and we didn't either, not even while it was happening..." They find an old hut, meet penguins, see extraordinary things, and, after testing their resources in this dramatic land of ice and snow, come home safe at the end of the day. "What shall we say about where we've been?" asked Max. "Tell the truth," I said. "We don't know." To the Ice is a beautifully produced chapter book that absorbs young readers in a real-life make-believe filled with problem-solving and adventure. This is a thrilling and plot-filled story for budding explorers and ice adventurers—the kind of book children will remember throughout their lives.

Praise for To the Ice "[A]n enthralling blend of survivalist realism and fantasy."—Publishers Weekly "This utter delight of a story is highly recommended!"—Readings, Australia "A good children's book ignites curiosity in adults. To the Ice left me with research rabbit holes to go down and connections to make. On one level, this is an adventure story along the lines of Where the Wild Things Are." —New Zealand Herald

Book Description
One day, Dad's hair decided it was tired of being brushed and combed. It wanted a life of its own, to see the world. It took off. Out of the bathroom, into the kitchen, and before you could say, "Hairsta la vista, baby!" it was gone. Dad gives chase around the town. He spots his hair hiding in the lawn, on the road, at the zoo—it's amazing how many things look like hair. He gives up and tries to accept life without hair. Then the postcards arrive. The hair is on a round-the-world trip, and Dad is still bald. Until one day the unbelievable happens and the hair comes back. A fast-paced, wonderfully absurd story packed with wordplay and hilarious illustrations. When Dad's Hair Took Off is a comical chapter book for early readers or for any child to enjoy reading aloud with a grownup who relates! A fun book to celebrate and share with Dad on Father's Day or any day. Translated from the German edition by Melody Shaw, which was shortlisted for multiple awards. Jörg Mühle studied illustration in Offenbach and Paris. He has been illustrating for books and magazines since 2000. He is the author and illustrator of worldwide bestselling interactive bedtime book for toddlers, Tickle My Ears. Praise for When Dad's Hair Took Off “[A]ll the relish of a tall tale, deadpan timing, and choice vocabulary."—starred, Foreword Reviews "Get ready for a hair-raising—or should we say hair-racing?—chase and an abundance of absurdity and witty wordplay.”—Kirkus Reviews "An early chapter book—the kind Gecko Press excels at."—Betsy Bird, A Fuse #8 Production "When Dad's Hair took Off is the perfect book to read when you feel like a good dollop of humour sprinkled with imagination and steeped in word play, I mean horse play, I mean HAIR play.”—NZ Poetry Box
