National Book tokens 2021 - anyone started?

[Snoodleberry]

Just received the email and can’t believe another year has come around again so quickly. At first glance it is looking tough!

Need to settle down with a cup of tea and get started.

Anyone else attempting (and happy to share clues?! )

I need:

Stop sign
French people
Tardis
C balloon
La Casa
Paradise boulevard

And one more I can't even find...???

@TinyTear

is it just me or the whole world is playing, it's really slow!

Yes mine is being very slow at the moment, it’s got stuck saying whether one of my guesses is right or not.

It’s so slow and I keep getting a server error now.

One thing I wish they’d change about this is that the images would blank out once you’ve completed each one.

@TinyTear

Is it the one in the window of the gallery 'things'

I was the same, could only find 19, then found it by accident

16/20

Need:

Stop sign
C balloon
Paradise boulevard
Broken things

A clue for the ballon one. Look at the age of the man and then think about the balloon he’s carrying.

nearly there!!!!!

Paradise Boulevard and Broken things!!!

A clue for the broken things :
What is happening to the 'things'?
It's a famous book by a Nigerian author.

I should be very grateful for any clues to
Paradise Boulevard
Tardis
Natural History Centre
The tandem cyclists
The stop sign man

For “Paradise Boulevard” you need to think of synonyms; the Broken Things were written by a very famous Nigerian author…

I got six very quickly. Now to settle in and try to unpick the rest.

I’ve only got two so far!

Agree that it would be helpful if the guessed clues would be greyed out.

WOOHOO FINISHED!!!!

Paradise think of a non common synonym for it, not eden and not heaven

the cyclists - they are french and very VERY sad

Tardis is a special type of machine

stop sign what can't you do?

natural history - what is the boy doing?

Thanks for the clues, I can't see what the boy is doing - is he drawing something?
Maybe I need some new glasses!

Oh @TinyTear you are a hero for finishing! I am still only 9 through, but now looking at the ideas on this thread which I think will help!

I used twitter for inspiration and a lot of googling as well...
