Review: Shaun Tan is sometimes thought of as a writer of books for children but he also addresses many issues for adults. Lost and Found Three contains his best known works in one hardback volume. The Red Tree, The Lost Thing and John Marsden classic scary story The Rabbits are all extended from the original separate soft back publications. The artwork of Shaun Tan is excellent and hugely imaginative. A DVD (from Australia) is available of The Lost Thing and I believe it won an Oscar for best short animated film. As a 'graphic novel' it is certainly my number one, along with The Arrival and Tales from Outer Suburbia, two other excellent books by Shaun Tan. 'So you want to hear a story' says the guy working tirelessly on his bottle top collection, then get this book!

Review: As a collector of wonderful children's books, I look for both an excellent story which can be either compelling &/or entertaining, AND nice illustrations. This is a collection of three stories, one fairly good, but the other two fall flat. The illustrations are very artistic, imaginative, & beautiful to behold, but without wonderful text, the book itself isn't woth keeping.
