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?! )

Thank you! Not sure how I missed that!

I've got Paradise Boulevarde now - this helped

www.thesaurus.com/browse/paradise

Some ideas for synonyms.

@Stillbloodyraining there is a word in the window of the gallery.

@TheDrsDocMartens If they can't find the nun then she is...? Also, what title are huns usually addressed by?

I’ve just randomly got the natural history one by putting a few words together, never heard of it.

Ok got paradise finally

@CaptainMyCaptain I’ve tried that! I can really tell his age but I’ve tried so many combos and nothing

The stop sign again I’ve tried so many combos but nothing.

Also the word in the gallery window

This is making me feel stupid now

@CaptainMyCaptain

I've got 15 now

I'm stuck on: t
the Stop sign
French people on a bike,
Tara's caramels
The toy shop
Paradise Boulevarde

How do the French people look? Do they have happy expressions?

I'm still stuck on:

Natural history museum (despite all the clues!)
Cyclists
Stop sign
Things

Just the black building on the top left and the glovemaker for me now.

I've got 18 and can't get the sad french couple or the boy outside the natural history centre (diary something?)

Oh I love this - am halfway through (mainly thanks to the clues on this thread!)

@TheDrsDocMartens ah, hadn't realised things was not part of the gallery. I've got things, so just gallery to go now. Thank you

@MadisonAvenue

Just the black building on the top left and the glovemaker for me now.

The black building is fairly straight forward - what is inside and when can you go in?

The author's name is over the shop. Gloves keep your ..... warm.

FINALLY got the damn stop sign and the boy

Just the things now. Which I thought would be simple but isn’t?!

Just the Toy Shop, the cyclists and the Stop sign now.

Describe what you see.

Clue for the French people - ignore the bike

The stop sign man was awful

I've got 17 don't get the Paradise road sign, the stop sign or the man with the balloon

@CaptainMyCaptain list what is in the window from left to right.

@Sammilouwho

I love the stop sign man book and still struggled to get it 😆

Yes, I got that one now thanks.

Got the bike one now - that was very sneaky.

The following are making me want to break my laptop :D

Man with Sign
Couple on bike (ignoring the bike)
Paradise Boulevard
Boy with Diary
One more I'm missing

man with sign - no idea couple on bike - think in French Paradise Boulevard - I googles synonyms for Paradise then googled them by turn with alternatives for Boulevarde. Cheating? Boy with diary - what is he writing about?

Have you found Things in the Gallery window? I thought it was all one clue at first.

Just the stop sign now. I really should stop and do something else but I can't stop until I've finished.
