Children will love the fast-paced and funny story of Trixie, the witch's cat, from picture book genius Nick Butterworth. Trixie is willing to do anything to be rid of her one white paw, but when she uses magic to try to 'fix' it, chaos ensues, and Trixie learns that it's good to be different and accept yourself for who you are.

On the edge of Dartmoor and a stoneΓÇÖs throw from the fishing ports of Devon and the rich seas of Cornwall, the Fish Deli celebrates the wonderful array of fresh fish and shellfish available in local waters. The shop was established in 2004 by Nick and Michele Legg who, in this book, share the recipes from their award-winning deli. With beautiful illustrations, the book takes the reader on a journey through the seasons, explaining when all the different species of fish and shellfish are at their prime, and how best to enjoy them.

This book brings together a diverse and unique set of writers who span literary styles, genres, and time periods--but who are united in their search for spirit in the wild. Through them we discover the tension between our understanding of the wilderness as both a fearful and a sacred space, which makes it particularly apt for capturing the unknown and surprising elements of belief.
