OLI AND BASIL by Megan Hess

The Dashing Frogs of Travel

You may be familiar with The World of Claris books by Megan Hess. Here is a new book to add to her collection, ‘Oli and Basil’. They are the dashing frogs of travel.

Megan Hess is an acclaimed art director and illustrator. She has worked with some prestigious designers and luxury brands, such as Chanel and Dior.

The art work and illustrations alone are beautiful to observe before you read the book.

Look out for the glossy green foiled pages!

Read to see how these frogs realise they need each other to make a wonderful team.

This is a stunning book and a wonderful read!

New moon

Edward and his vampire family have to go away because it’s starting to get dangerous around their hometown. Bella is really sad because her loved one has to go away from her. Jacob (a werewolf and Bella’s best friend) starts to get close to Bella when Edward is away. Once again, they face many challenges and make great memories.I really loved this book! I’m starting to enjoy the series more and more! The book was addictive and immensely hard to put down.
