Cozy Classics. War And Peace - Hardcover

'Would it be possible to abridge great works of literature to create an early reading experience that was interesting for both children and adults? I'm happy to report Cozy Classics series does just that... It's the photographs of the brother's handmade needle felt characters that really bring the books to life... there's a real tenderness and occasional profundity stiched into them.' - Daily Telegraph Review (20 July)

'The pictures themselves are stunning needle-felted renditions of specific scenes from the story, as instantly recognisable to bookish grown-ups as they are comprehensible to tots... it's a testament to their skill and innovation that it is genuinely exciting to see where they go next." - --The Upcoming (June)

The Cozy Classics series is the brainchild of two brothers, both dads, who were thinking of ways to teach words to their very young children. They hit upon the classics as the basis for their infant primers, and the rest, as they say, is history.
