The Spectacular City by Teresa Heapy

Win a copy of The Spectacular City by Teresa Heapy

Posted on October 2, 2018 by jenny

One day, adventurous Mouse determines to set off to the bright lights of the spectacular city, accompanied by his friend Bear. But the city is full of distractions and dangers, and Mouse might need his steadfast friend more than he realises …

With Autumn here it’s time to wrap up warm and take things a little slower. Curl up with your little ones and read Teresa Heapy’s gorgeous new adventure tale. With instructions on how to make your own paper aeroplane included, this is the perfect activity for a rainy afternoon. Why not take a crisp afternoon walk to your local park to fly the plane?

This beautiful and lyrical story about the power of friendship, is stunningly illustrated by David Litchfield.

The Spectacular City is a follow up to The Marvellous Moon. This is Teresa and David’s second atmospheric tale of Mouse, Bear, and their touching friendship.

The Spectacular City by Teresa Heapy, illustrated by David Litchfield was published in August by Penguin Random House Children’s. It is perfect for ages 3 and over.
