Hidden Books game 2023

[InMySpareTime]

I haven't seen a thread on this yet, so here's a thread to share hints for the Hidden Books Game this year:

@Pushkinini
Natural history - what do you find in the natural history section? It's not full of domesticated animals in other words it's a place for untamed creatures.
Classic children picture book written in the 60's.
Bin - not rubbish or trash but another word for things you throw away. Followed by not air or sea but
This is a poem rather than a novel written in the 1920s by a man who may have had feline companions.

I am still stuck on
Romance
Open sign.

Finished!

Just got the sign, just romance to go.

@Pushkinini
What is a child's name for a rabbit?
In a boxing match, what goes between the opponents names?
Name of the other animal?

Look at the names on the book - gender?
Name of place they're from?

I'm stuck on:
Bin
Revision
Romance

Not hate in black and white but the opposite emotion in the other type of TV licence.

@Girlontherailreplacementbusservice thsnks! Never heard of it!

Neither had I. There were about 5 I hadn't heard of so I needed clues to get me there and another couple I had heard of but couldn't get from the picture. In the highly unlikely event of me winning I will owe a few Mumsnetters a share of the prize.

Still stuck on Krampus and it's the next day 1😢 its my last one canny find it on any best sellers omg.

Not Satan or the devil but something like them followed by a slang term for the police and the body part that contains the bone shown in the image which when combined are a type of snake.

I've got all of them apart from the Headless man one! Grrrrgrrr

Managed to complete - very pleased!
Many Thanks to all the posters whose clues helped.
Biggest "groan" from me was the Bin. One clue was the anagram of "toilets" (right there in plain sight) + felines.

He’s not The Headless Man he’s
The [Can’t See Him At All] Man

@gleegeek .
You can't see his head - so what is his head?

Oh god! So obvious! Thank you x

Yes I got 20/20 now you were my best help thanks

Completed! Thank you for the clues here everyone - it turned it into a fun game I could actually work out, rather than something I'd have been forever stuck on 😂I really appreciate that we all stick to clues here, rather than giving away any actual answers.

Still no idea on the lion one lol

You’ll groan when you get it.

Its a 4-word title.

Second word, it’s not a lion, it just sounds like lion if you say it quite fast. You might draw a straight one, or walk one if you’re Johnny Cash.

The last word is the English translation of ‘belle’.

The whole phrase is like a popular BBC cop drama, but the last word only sounds like…

Haven't seen any clues about the kids reading the train book unless I've missed them! literally my last one

EDIT: IGNORE ME - HOW OBVIOUS!

Trains are run on what?
Kids are more formally called what?
This is a classic and we'll known as a film.

@Taylaur
Proper word for kids
What the trains run on.
Absolute classic.

Wow... that's a stretch! Some of these clues are definitely better than others...

Eggmaster. You are right in your thinking for the science one (revision guides), I don't know why it isn't accepting it.
