Tashi and the Stolen Forest

Description

OVER ONE MILLION COPIES SOLD! 'Why, that interfering little worm, someone ought to step on him!' the Baron hissed to Tiki Pu. I guessed he was talking about me. 'Well, never mind if he blabs about the wood,' he added, cheering up. 'I'll just lie, and say I had nothing to do with it. You, however, must pay Much-to-Learn a visit. Steal his secret spell.' Jack loved it when Tashi told his stories. Today Tashi was telling about the time the old forest disappeared, and Much-to-Learn was in danger of disappearing with it! And then the whole village was threatened ... Could magic sand and a certain spell help save them all? Only someone as clever as Tashi could find a way to outwit the Baron - and solve the mystery of the disappearing trees. ACCLAIM FOR TASHI First published in 1995 and has now achieved classic status with sales of over one million copies.

Sally Rippin, bestselling author of Polly and Buster and Billie B. Brown 'I read my kids Tashi - it's this story that they love.' Angelina Jolie 'All children should meet Tashi. He can be their mentor on the road to reading, feeding their imaginations with fantastic stories. The Tashi stories have the evergreen qualities of classics.' Magpies

"I read my kids Tashi--it's this story that they love." --Angelina Jolie "Tashi's popularity is easy to understand." --Publishers Weekly starred review of The Big, Big Book of Tashi "Tashi and his gentle escapades provide just enough danger to captivate budding fantasy fans." --Publishers Weekly on Tashi and the Wicked Magician and Other Stories "This 15th book still has a freshness that comes from the quietly humorous disconnect between the titular magical, elf-like character and his friends. . . . Look no further for a different type of first chapter book." --Kirkus Reviews on Tashi and the Phoenix "Fans of . . . Dav Pilkey's Captain Underpants will welcome the humor and appreciate the protagonist." --School Library Journalon Tashi and the Big Stinker
