BEYOND THE RAINBOW WARRIOR - Tapa dura

This collection of stories has been commissioned by Michael Morpurgo to celebrate 25 years of Greenpeace. Embracing a wide variety of subjects on an environmental theme, the contributing authors include such names as New Zealand author Margaret Mahy, Australia's Paul Jennings, and the British writers Anthony Horowitz, Joan Aiken and James Riordan. The list of illustrators, commissioned by Michael Foreman, includes Quentin Blake, Francois Place, Louise Brierly and Gary Blythe. The stories range from a tale of a remote New Zealand forest to the legend of the original Rainbow Warrior, and their combined message is an appeal to people of every age, race and creed - to protect our fragile and beautiful world.
