Clean Up!

Product Information

Nathan: I grew up in Shepherd’s Bush and my favourite London spot would have to be a Caribbean spot called Ochi. It’s on Uxbridge Road next to Shepherd’s Bush Market and it’s my favourite Caribbean food. I’ll grab some food from there, then I’ll probably meander down to my house and get some beers along the way. I’m a big Shepherd’s Bush fan. I know this area intricately. I know all the spots. I love it. Puffin started out as a non-fiction publisher, with its first title appearing in 1940.

Dapo: It was a fascinating thing because what I do normally, up until that point - it doesn’t involve collaboration. What I was used to doing was doing commission work for people. I would come in almost as a pencil for hire, draw something and then leave basically. Dapo: One of the first things that we were keen on doing was taking her abroad in this book. It's not a specific Caribbean island. What I ended up doing was drawing references from different islands that I’ve come across visually and asking friends of mine to send pictures of their islands so that I could find little bits and pieces to take and put into this second book... it's what an island in the Caribbean would look like and the problems that several islands in the Caribbean have at the moment with pollution.If the book has a smoky odor, place it in a sealable plastic container with at least one cup of baking soda or activated charcoal. If you child has grandparents talk about where they live, are they near or far away? Do you know anyone who lives in Jamaica? What do you know about it?

If mildew has already taken hold in a book, isolate the mildewed book in a sealable plastic bag to prevent contamination of other items. Add cornstarch or dry blotters to help dry the book. Excessively wet mildew will smear if you try to remove it.

This book is truly wonderful with a lovely message. The illustrations are excellent and engaging. Perfect for reading to young children to show them not only that they can make a difference but the importance of looking after the world around them.
