Description

In this mesmerising follow-up to Nightlights, Lorena Alvarez explores our relationship with nature and animals. On a school field trip to the river, Sandy wanders away from her classmates and discovers an empty turtle shell. Peeking through the dark hole, she suddenly finds herself within a magical new dimension. Filled with sculptures, paintings and books, the turtle's shell is a museum of the natural world. But one painting is incomplete, and the turtle needs Sandy's help to finish it...

Reviews
Alvarez's artwork is luminous and stunning, full of detail, evocative and engaging. Just as unsettling and delightful as its predecessor, Lorena Alvarez's new instalment in the Nightlights series is as gorgeous as it is imaginative. * Children's Books Ireland Recommended Reads 2019-20 *
Ferociously odd and utterly transporting graphic novel. * TLS, Writing about climate change for children *

The shipping was just superior

The shipping was just superior; not even one of the books was in contact with the shipping box -anywhere-, not even a corner or the bottom, so all the books arrived in perfect condition. The international shipping took around 2 weeks, so pretty great too.

Found a hard to get book…

Finding a hard to get book on Booksplease and with it not being an over inflated price was great. Ordering was really easy with updates on despatch. The book was packaged well and in great condition. I will certainly use them again.
