Jump into the bold and bright world of Henri Matisse, one of history’s most playful artists. This is the first in a series of creative play kits for budding artists ages five and up. The kit includes a concertina foldout that guides readers through step-by-step activities, starting with a simple color-focused exercise and building up to a big collaborative project using found materials. The foldout also demonstrates how to create art with the four kiss-cut stencil sheets and three die-cut picture pockets.

Play with Matisse encourages collaboration and imagination. Many of the activities take inspiration from Matisse's life—partner with your own artist’s assistant or learn how to grow a paper “garden” filled with bright blooms and fluttering butterflies. At the heart of author Alice Harman’s text is an important message for young creatives: never give up and always have fun! This is a craft kit with a difference.

For ages 5+

Rediscover Shakespeare’s tale of power and betrayal.

It’s lonely at the top.

Who will rise to fill the power vacuum – Caesar’s enemies, or his few true friends?

Julius Caesar is Shakespeare’s iconic tale of power and treachery.

‘They told me I was everything: 'tis a lie’

Rediscover Shakespeare’s tale of power and treachery.

The price for power is paid in blood.

The ageing King Lear must divide his kingdom between his daughters; but who to choose? Goneril and Regan, who love him loudly and flatter his ego, or the self-contained Cordelia, who waits for fate to bring what it will.

It is a decision that will unleash a storm upon the kingdom. A decision twisted by love, by smiles, by quiet treachery. A decision that could undo them all.

King Lear is Shakespeare’s iconic tale of ego and betrayal.

‘I love you with so much of my heart that none is left to protest’

Love, deception and discord are flourishing in the court of Messina.

Sweet, innocent Hero and the famed soldier Claudio are immediately infatuated, while the bickering Beatrice and Benedick can agree on just one thing: the other is insufferable. Little do they know, two plans are afoot – one to make Beatrice and Benedick fall in love, another to break up Hero and Claudio.

Much Ado About Nothing is Shakespeare’s witty comedy of words where sharp-tongued enemies become lovers and sweet romance turns sour.

‘Farewell the tranquil mind; farewell content.’

Rediscover Shakespeare’s tale of jealousy and miscommunication.

After being passed over for promotion, the envious flag-bearer Iago begins a vicious campaign of whispers against his leader, the famed Black Venetian General, Othello. As Iago’s manipulation spins ever-wider, Othello becomes increasingly entangled in his web of lies.

As Othello’s passion is turned against him, he is driven to the edge. To ruin. To murder.

Othello is Shakespeare’s iconic tale of love and jealousy.
