Description
Here's a neat gift from the UK: the Ladybird TF books.

From Tfwiki.net: "Ladybird Books is a British publishing company which produced several The Transformers storybooks and audio cassettes written by John Grant and released under their 'Tell-A-Tale' line from 1985 to 1988. The stories take place in a micro-continuity all their own.
The books' illustrations, provided by a variety of artists, are strictly based on the toys of the characters, down to the 'headless' Ratchet and Ironhide and trigger-crotch Megatron. Although the art is at best inconsistent and at worst wildly off-model, the stories are well-written with exciting plots that delve quite thoroughly into the secrecy of the Transformers' conflict on Earth.
Each book has an opening blurb that describes the state of the war at the time of the story. The blurbs are included in the audio readings, the first one by a Victor Caroli-esque narrator and all subsequent ones by voice actor Peter Marinker, set to a synthesizer theme that contains elements of the classic 'Transformers! More than meets the eye' leitmotif."
