Product Description

Review

'Clare Beaton is another perennial favourite of mine. She provides beautifully stitched felt and bric-a-brac illustrations for a range of Barefoot titles. The latest, Elusive Moose, packs in a lot of information about the animal kingdom and even has a stitched guide to their tracks.' --Nicola Smyth, The Independent on Sunday

'The beautifully simple fabric collages perfectly complement this gentle story through the northern lands with its animals.' --Angels & Urchins


Product Description

Travel to the northern lands to search for the elusive moose hidden in every scene of this charming book. You'll learn about the animals and the changing seasons in no time with the informative notes at the end.

5.0 out of 5 stars Another brilliant Clare Beaton book, 12 Feb 2009
I discovered Clare Beaton's illustration work a couple of years ago and since then, I've bought her books whenever I see a new one. She uses felt, vintage fabrics and haberdashery oddments to create very detailed images, and as a fabric junkie, I could spend hours poring over the ways in which she uses her materials.

Elusive Moose is rich with detail. She takes her reader through North American landscapes, searching for moose, which are 'hidden' on every page, and along the way, encounters beavers, wild horses, and Artic Hares. There are other hidden details to look out for, though: on each page, she adds a subtle reminder of the presence of the child narrator - a dropped daisy chain, a footprint, a lost mitten. My son is 11 months and loves turning the pages, but I know that when he's older he'll get a lot of pleasure from spotting these hidden details too.
