Templar publishes books that children love and that librarians and parents want to share with children. These are quality picture and novelty books which children treasure and want to read over and over again. From the amazing baby® range, to Maurice Pledger’s delightful Sounds of the Wild titles and, of course, the best-selling Ology series, which sees Vampirology just published – and look out for our tenth Ology title in autumn 2010. Templar has also launched a brand new fiction list featuring debut authors, Teresa Flavin with Blackhope Enigma and Stephanie Burgis with A Most Improper Magick for 9-10 year olds. Young teens should watch out for the extraordinary ‘The 10pm Question’ by New Zealand writer Kate de Goldi and the amazing World Shaker by Australian writer Richard Harland. Johnny O’Brien’s second Jack Christie adventure, Day of Deliverance is out in June. Ever popular Simon Bartram continues his lunar adventures with Bob and Barry – new titles this year include A Right Royal Disaster and The Heartless Robot. In 2009 look out for the second novel in the Dragonology Chronicles – The Dragon Diary by Dugald Steer: a debut novel by Johnny O’Brien – Day of the Assassins, and for the 5-8 year olds, The Lunar Adventures of Bob and Barry is a new series of early readers written by Simon Bartram.

Synopsis
Alice In Wonderland by Lewis CarrollHelen Oxenbury's interpretation of Lewis Carroll's classic story has all the qualities that make her picture books so well-loved. Each book in this limited edition of 1000 copies is individually numbered and signed by the illustrator. This is a real picture book Alice, but with the full text. Alice is engagingly modern, not the Victorian era.
Reviews
"An 'Alice' for the new millennium, this book is a triumph of design and rare quality. Helen Oxenbury perfectly captures the dreamlike qualities suggested in Carroll's famous classic." The Guardian
"Fresh, modern and comic." The Sunday Times
About The Author
Lewis Carroll, a pseudonym of Charles Lutwidge Dodgson, was born on 27 January, 1832. He was educated at Richmond School in Yorkshire, Rugby School and Christ Church, Oxford.
From 1855 to 1881 Lewis Carroll was a mathematical lecturer at Oxford, where he was a somewhat eccentric and withdrawn character. He loved being with children and wrote many nonsense poems and books to entertain them. He died of bronchitis in his sister's home in Guildford on 14 July, 1898.
Lewis Carroll's most famous works are Alice's Adventures in Wonderland (published in 1865) and the sequel Alice Through the Looking-Glass, which contained the nonsense poem classic The Jabberwocky (published in 1872). He wrote these tales to entertain Alice Liddell, daughter of the Dean of Christ Church.
