Find out moreMilo is a mouse who wakes one morning and can smell something! he sniffs and sniffs until he finds the source of the smell and is delighted when it's cheese. There's a problem though and just when it looks like he is about to make a terrible mistake, a lucky sneeze saves the day! This book is a delight from start to finish. There are lovely illustrations to accompany the story and along each illustration is a 'sniff, sniff' that children reading it themselves or reading along with an adult would enjoy joining in with. The story is simple and enjoyable and should occupy a place in every child's bookcase and every key stage 1 class book corner. I will be buying this book for sure.

Mike Payne is known as the creator and original artist of 'Tatty Teddy'. In art circles he is referred to as 'The Teddy Bear Man' - something he sees as a compliment! This book is a collection of 15 'character' bears which Mike has created for you, the reader, each with their own personalities and names. A fun book with wonderfully illustrated pictures, this is a favourite amongst adults and children alike.

Princes Risborough, a small, pleasent town nestling in the Chiltern Hills, has seen many changes over the years, especially since the Second World War. In this delightful record, many stories and anecdotes have been gathered from the people who have lived and worked in the town throughout the post-war period. Long-time Risborough residents Mike and Angela Payne have interviewed scores of people about living and working in the town. The book includes untold stories, personal memories and the contributions individuals have made. All this is complemented by over sixty pictures, some previously unseen, from the authors' and local people's private collections. This volume provides a glimpse into how the town has changed and developed, as seen through the eyes of those who know it best. Bringing back nostalgic memories of real life in Buckinghamshire town, this truly is a book for the people by the people.
