Today Maisy is going to her local bookstore to buy a new book, but

there are so many to choose from! There’s a big brown book about

bears, a long blue book about fish, a noisy book about trucks, and a

book about things to draw and paint. Just as Maisy finds a beautiful

book of rhymes that her friend Tallulah will love, out pops Charley

from behind the shelves. “Ahoy, Maisy!” he says, holding a book

about pirates. Now what kind of books will Cyril and Eddie choose?

Lucy Cousins is the creator of the beloved Maisy series. She is also the author-illustrator of the widely acclaimed Yummy: Eight Favorite Fairy Tales, a New York Times Book Review

Best Illustrated Children’s Book of the Year, as well as I’m the Best and Hooray for Fish! Lucy Cousins lives in Hampshire, England.

Kids love Maisy — and

Maisy loves books!

Follow her as she

discovers the wonders

of her local bookstore

for the first time.

It’s a beautiful, sunny

day, and Maisy knows

just how to spend it —

at the beach with her

friends! Maisy arrives

with her bus to pick

up her pals. Cyril has

food for the picnic,

and Tallulah brings

her pink float. After

squeeze on board, it

won’t be long at all until they’re at the seaside!

Whether driving over land or sailing across the sea, Maisy takes her friends all over the

place in two shaped board books.
