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?! )

Tiny tear you are a star, I only have one left to get now :)

Clue for the gallery. The main character’s surname is there to see.

I’ve got the gallery - I was totally overthinking it!!

I'm stuck on toy shop, tara's caramels, natural history, nun, dog, stop sign, paradise boulevard.

Right, got the toy shop now.

The dog - he’s doing something strange at night.

Thank you!

The toy shop is basically what’s in the window from left to right.

Ah - thanks - got it.

I’m really not good at this type of puzzle. I’ve only got 4

I've got 8 easily plus Paradise Boulevard thanks to the clues above. The rest are going to take some time....

caramel, what is a main ingredient, and looking at the chimney, what happened to it?

Nun, what is another word for Nun?

I’m stuck on man and the C as it’s not what I thought of and I can’t think of anything else.

Done it!! I’m so unreasonably happy!

Anyone struggling with nun - what’s another word for a nun?

Can someone the please provide a link to it

I’m stuck on man and the C as it’s not what I thought of and I can’t think of anything else.

You’ve pretty much said the answer in your sentence! How old is the man and what’s he carrying?

Got the nun thank you. Still being dense about the caramel, natural history, stop and paradise.

I’ve seen loads of clues on Twitter for the natural history one but nothing’s helping.

Anyone struggling with nun - what’s another word for a nun?

I just guessed that correctly and shocked myself. I’ve never heard of it before. My new strategy will just be saying what I see because it might turn out to be the title of a book. I’ve got 8 now.

I’ve just got the black building, the glove maker and the natural history ones left.

I’ve just got the natural history one - think a type of book you’d write in everyday, how old the boy is, what kind of job he might be doing.

I just need the man with the stop sign now.

The Glove maker - the shop owner is the author of the book and think about what you put in gloves (not hands).

The black building - what might the tent be used for inside the building and what time of day is it.

I'm at 19, I cannot get the paradise boulevard one. I've tried heaven, eden, providence. Help!

@AlpacaMaJammas think about the perfect place....
