Everything seems hopeless until the child returns to her room and sees the red tree. At that perfect moment of beauty and purity, the child smiles and her world stirs anew. Shaun Tan's illustrations are remarkable for the way they combine and react upon each other. He creates an other worldly labryinth of visual ideas joined with the familiar immediacy of the little child, and condenses them into scenes of extraordinary depth and insight. Every child will appreciate the book's life-affirming message but it will be equally successful with all readers. With sensitivity and wonder, the evocative images in The Red Tree open a window to our inexplicable emotions and tell a story about the power of hope, renewal and inspiration.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cdiv class=\"sb-details\"\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/strong\u003e \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/shaun-tan-books\"\u003eShaun Tan\u003c\/a\u003e (all their books in stock)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eGenre:\u003c\/strong\u003e Children's non-fiction, Social Topics\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFormat:\u003c\/strong\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePublished:\u003c\/strong\u003e 2008\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 28\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/strong\u003e Hachette Australia\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eISBN:\u003c\/strong\u003e 9780734410870\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Hachette Australia","offers":[{"title":"Standard Secondhand — £2.41","offer_id":47913592651953,"sku":"SB-0734410875-C3","price":2.41,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0618\/2669\/5345\/files\/0734410875.jpg?v=1789695881"},{"product_id":"pictura-prints-metropolis","title":"Pictura Prints: Metropolis","description":"\u003cp\u003ePictura is a stunning range of black-and-white artworks to collect and colour, for ages 9 to 90.

'Sometimes you wake up with nothing to look forward to...' As she wanders around a world that is complex, puzzling and alienating, she is overtaken by a myriad of feelings. Just as it seems all hope is lost, the girl returns to her bedroom to find that a tiny red seedling has grown to fill the room with warm light. Astonishing Perth artist, Shaun Tan's latest creation, The Red Tree, is a book about feelings - feelings that can not always be simply expressed in words. It is a series of imaginary landscapes conjured up by the wizardry of Shaun Tan's masterful and miraculous art. As a kind of fable, The Red Tree seeks to remind us that just as bad feelings are inevitable, they are always tempered by hope.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cdiv class=\"sb-details\"\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/strong\u003e \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/shaun-tan-books\"\u003eShaun Tan\u003c\/a\u003e (all their books in stock)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eGenre:\u003c\/strong\u003e CHILDREN'S FICTION, TREES_FICTION\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFormat:\u003c\/strong\u003e Hardback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePublished:\u003c\/strong\u003e 2000\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 32\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/strong\u003e Lothian Books\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eISBN:\u003c\/strong\u003e 9780734401724\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Lothian Books","offers":[{"title":"Very Good — £9.95","offer_id":47958438740145,"sku":"SB-0734401728-C2","price":9.95,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0618\/2669\/5345\/files\/0734401728.jpg?v=1790050140"}],"url":"https:\/\/sellbooks.co.uk\/collections\/shaun-tan-books.oembed","provider":"Sell Books .co.uk","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
