Product Description

Product Description
Corky and Loopy are two perfectly normal girls. They like chocolate biscuits, fizzy drinks, screaming at each other and drawing. But they are also a little bit special ...because they are angels. One day they visit Sid, a pavement artist. Sid is sad because he wants to take part in the big drawing competition but can't work out how the judges will ever get to see his work. Corky and Loopy decide to help and give him a very special pencil from their collection. So begins a bright and colourful adventure from the brilliant Quentin Blake.

From the Back Cover
Corky and Loopy are two perfectly normal girls . . . or are they?
Discover the truth in this artistic adventure from Quentin Blake.

5.0 out of 5 stars By James & Becky-Y3, 26 April 2009
A Kid's Review
This review is from: Angel Pavement (Paperback)
This super book is really funny.
It has lots of fantastic illustrations and is for children and babies.
It tells the story of Angel who gets a pen and draws pictures that come to life. Sometimes the pictures argue and sometimes they get together.
We enjoyed this book a lot.

5.0 out of 5 stars Marvellous magic from Quentin Blake as pavement art takes off across the skies., 16 May 2008
By ELH Browning "Esther-Lou" (Kingston Bagpuize, Oxon) - See all my reviews
(TOP 500 REVIEWER)      
This review is from: Angel Pavement (Paperback)
Presumably inspired by the title of J. B. Priestley's "Angel Pavement" (1930) this is the story of two two normal yet unusual girls, "angels" with magical wings drawn in Blake's wonderful quirky contemporary style. They whisk an old pavement artist into the sky where his colourful line drawings take off above the grey city skyline. There are two dancing rabbits on one crane, fantastical birds sliding down another, an animal parade across an iron bridge and a hippo on the Old Clock Tower. And Sid Bunkin, the pavement artist, is awarded a special prize in the town's Big Drawing Competition. After all "When you start drawing you can never be quite sure what is going to happen next, can you?"
If you like this, try "Patrick", also by Quentin Blake, which has the same magical feel, and "Gregory and the Magic Line" by Piggot which has the same magic-pen kind of theme.
