Ben's Magic Telescope

Illustrated by Peter & Sian Bailey.

'He saw a dragonfly on a pond
With cathedral windows for each wing
He saw the red tongue of a wren
When it opened up its beak to sing.'

Here is a magical, lyrical and though-provoking picture book told in a mixture of story and verse by one of today's most popular poets, Brian Patten. The wonder of the story is echoed perfectly in the beautifully detailed illustrations by Peter and Sian Bailey.
