NZ Post Childrens Book Awards, Picture Book Winner 2009

A boisterous picture book full of noisy fun for machine-mad kids. "Plan the road. Plan the road. Mark it on the map." Roadworks takes the reader through all the stages of making a road; from planning to construction to driving on the finished road, the full journey is detailed for young and curious minds with a rhythmic text and bright illustrations.
Sally Sutton is an Auckland playwright and children's writer. Brian Lovelock is a practising fine artist from New Zealand. He has only recently ventured into the world of book illustration.

NZ Post Childrens Book Awards, Children's Choice Award 2009

Simon loves to scare Stella Rosa, especially with his stories. Most of the time Stella Rosa can cope but now her grandmother, Nana Lupin, is coming to visit from a far-away country and Simon whispers that Nana Lupin is a Were-Nana ...and Stella Rosa believes him. The darkly robed figure that comes through the arrival gate at the airport does look like a Were-Nana after all...and Stella Rosa is afraid because she hasn't been given the special potion that Simon says she should have drunk to protect her!

2009 NZ POST BOOK AWARDS FINALIST
Every second Friday, Margi and Totty go and stay at Dad's house where they get magnificently muddy, worryingly wet and mind-blowingly messy. Their Dad's house is messy and he collects stuff. They never know what is going to happen, but the children always have fun.
A fun, wonderfully illustrated, reassuring picture book about children whose parents live apart. For children and parents to share.
