Prize-winning illustrator Quentin Blake’s stunning illustrations bring great pathos to this touching story of how two lonely birds make a hash of communicating. Back and forth across the swamp the two leggy birds go as Crane and Heron make offers to each other but never seem to find the moment when both are agreed on what they want. Much pain, confusion and downright surprise is brilliantly conveyed in Quentin Blake’s soft-palette illustrations which offer no solutions leaving children the opportunity to think how this will resolve.
I am very happy to combine postage for multiple purchases - please contact me before paying for multiple items so that I can provide a revised invoice. Ebay does not automatically calculate combined postage. I will do my best to save you some $$$! However, some items are just too big and fragile to be sent combined - please ask what options I can offer before bidding. Please request a combined invoice from me directly before paying, otherwise your items will be sent separately. Please do not select Local Pickup to avoid paying postage costs if you wish to combine postage with another item already purchased - this will result in cancellation of your order.
Discounts are available for multiple purchases - PLEASE CONTACT ME BEFORE BUYING. Pickup is available from Tuggeranong in the ACT - cash or Paypal. I do not deliver.
All items are sent by Australia Post Standard Mail with tracking.
INTERNATIONAL BUYERS - All items are shipped by Australia Post Standard Airmail which includes tracking. Due to the repeated loss of parcels, I no longer ship by Economy Air. Buyers are responsible for all custom/duty tax costs.
