"It was early on a summer’s morning. Sir Liontooth awoke and yawned, went out onto his balcony and looked at the garden. A wind ruffled the manes of the Indian Horse Chestnuts; he heard the growl of Dog Rose and saw the soft grey Lambs’ Ears prick as a Panther Lily passed..."Liontooth is a beautifully written gardening classic which will captivate every romantic gardener. Stunningly illustrated by over 150 remarkable 19th century botanical illustrations, including the extraordinary Les Fleurs Animées by the famous French illustrator Grandville.The book tells of Sir Liontooth, who lays down his sword and seeks happiness in the making of a beautiful garden. At first all is harmony; then enter discord – and with it a herbaceous mix of treachery, betrayal, loss of identity and civil war which all but wrecks his dream.Liontooth is a battle between good and evil, peopled by exotic characters and one extraordinary heroine.The illustrations by Grandville and Maund perfectly complement this captivating story, and in addition the author provides planting notes to accompany the text. This is a delightful book which will be cherished by garden lovers the world over.

North America’s ski resorts are mostly created and groomed by the hugely powerful PistenBully snow moving machines, which are built in Germany by Kässbohrer Geländerverzeug AG. The company’s familiar bright red machines dominate the North American snow machinery sector, selling over 50 per cent of all machines both there and in 60 countries worldwide. The company’s North American retailer network extends throughout America and Canada. Beautiful Books have secured exclusive international publishing rights from the company to develop a children’s character series based on the PistenBully machines, and are launching the first two titles in the series simultaneously in North America and Europe.Hello PistenBully! introduces the characters who live in Snow Valley, our fictional ski resort where all kinds of adventures occur. We meet:* PistenBully Peter, who is the wise older character, who has been shifting snow for many years.* PistenBully Jim, the eager youngster who has the strength of youth and some of its rashness.* Cathy and Tam, the snowcats, who whizz about the snow and just can’t keep out of trouble* Sam and Rose, the two children who ski and snowboard all day and are firm friends of Peter and Jim.* Charlie the Crow, Bernard the Dog and Freddie the Fox - Charlie’s the rather reluctant messenger, Bernard is so, so faithful and Freddie...well, he can be a bit naughty sometimes.* Penelope and Timothy, the ski lift pylons, who watch over and protect Snow Valley.In Hello PistenBully!, we meet the characters for the first time, and also get a real flavor of the superb computer animated rendering which has been developed exclusively for this series by a European design agency.
