Review:
Secret in the Mist is a quality hard-cover picture book for 5- year-olds which tells the story of a little boy's delight when the seed he has secretly planted gradually grows into a magnificent sunflower. He has two secrets because the growing plant looks different by day and by night and the poetic quality of Margaret Nash's text is grounded by Stephen Lambert's lovely, friendly coloured pictures. This is an enchanting book. The slightly mysterious story introduces interesting and challenging words and the pictures beautifully capture the magic and mystery of the natural world. A reassuring story about love between parents and children and the wonder and excitement of childhood. -- Tamsin Palmer
