Raya Gifts and All Things Nice

26/5/2017

15 Comments

 
This Raya, Oyez!Books together with our talented ​Art Editor / Creative Development Director, Emila Yusof, has come up with two designs for sampul duit (money packet) and with the help of our partner, Creative United, two must-have sling bags. 
Happy Family Sampul Raya and Sling Bag - art by Emila Yusof
The Happy Family design by Emila Yusof is quintessential Emila, and we just have to smile as it gets us right into the Raya spirit which is all about family and balik kampung. For collectors of sampul raya, this has the benefit too of being an all-year-round  sampul duit.
Kampungku Sampul Raya and Sling Bag - art by Elly Nor Suria
The Kampungku design is by Elly Nor Suria. Oyez! has published a Kampung colouring book by Elly and now you can get inspired and colour yours too. The colourful patchwork of kampung scenery is so lovely, we are so proud to have it on this all-year-round sampul duit. For your information, Elly also paints her kampung scenes on larger canvas and accepts commission. Do check her out on FB.
We have packed these sampul raya and sling bags into special gift packages at attractive prices for you so why not get them as gifts for this Raya celebration?

The 3rd of March is World Wildlife Day and this year's theme is 'Listen to the Young Voices'. According the United Nations, young people between the ages of 10 and 24 make up one quarter of the world’s population and as the future leaders and decision makers of the world, they must be encouraged to act at both local and global levels to protect endangered wildlife.

Oyez! has published a number of books on wildlife such as Puteri Tioman and Siti the Elephant and stories around wildlife such as Under the Sea, Pip's Peculiar Problem and Where is Owly?. We will also be launching Belang the Tiger during our Children's Book Week from 18-26th March. Author Rossiti Aishah Rashidi is a committed conservationist and wonderful educator. Watch out for more information on our Children's Book Week. 
In line with World Wildlife Day, we are promoting a range of beautiful wildlife cards from Rossiti's books for your collection. Send them on or frame them up, they remind us of the wildlife we must treasure.

We are celebrating International Women's Day on 8th March. The theme this year is #BeBoldForChange. We have a special gift pack for you designed by artist Emila Yusof so watch out for it!
Do you usually wake up in the morning happy or grumpy? Well, the 20th of March is the International Day of Happiness! Take the pledge:
International Day of Happiness pledge
Now, don't you think we should all be reminded of this everyday?
For us at Oyez!Books, there's nothing more wonderful than the happy smile of a child. It makes everything we do so much more meaningful and fun. Whether in the books our authors create or in the events we do, we aim to create happiness.

The International Day of Forests is on 21st March and we wish to highlight the book, We Love Trees by Rossiti Aishah Rashidi and illustrated by Evi Shelvia. We are working on a Bahasa Malaysia version as many parents have asked for it. A favourite activity is pot painting with Rossiti as children learn to recognise leaves of plants and paint them on a pot that they will surely be proud to keep.

There are several more special days to observe in March. These special days highlight important issues around the world. Do check out the UN website for more information and resources. You can download posters, watch videos and sign up to be a part of change.

by Emila Yusof

I am proud to present to you my first project as Creative Development Director with Oyez Books and Gifts Division. This Chinese New Year Gift Specials are in cooperation with Creative United who had been helping me setting up Oyez! Brand store. I am also proud to feature works by Chooi Ling Keiong, a graduate of the Kuala Lumpur College of Art (Dip. Fine Art, 2002), multiple award-winning illustrators, and my fellow kampung folk (Raub).


I understand that this time of year there is a lot of pressure to find the perfect gift. I know it because I am among those who are always looking for something different to give, something that can be opened over and over to thrill, surprise, inform, inspire and entertain. So I thought books are wonderful and thoughtful gift. Books with its own merchandise item make it even more special.
Here are some ideas to get you thinking and hopefully started on your list. If you like to order, please visit Oyez Books and Gifts shop.
