The Great Oak
For tens of thousands of years, the oaks have stood proud and tall, and along with the other trees around this planet helped provide the air that we all breathe. They give us shelter from the rain, shade from the hot sun and provide a home for a variety of animals. They even provide stability to the ground we all walk on. We little creatures have made a big impact on our home since we first arrived here. See how the story unfolds, seen through the eyes of one great oak and one little guy who is hoping soon to be a great oak…if he gets the chance. See the oak’s amusement and sometimes the horror at the goings-on of the strange but seemingly harmless little creatures who seem to have appeared from nowhere.
How will they cope against enormous odds? Will the human race realise in time? Will there be someone to save them…maybe it’s YOU?

The Goode Sisters
Children are born into the world unencumbered with prejudices and closed-mindedness; in fact they are quite the contrary, possessing young hearts and minds that ‘hope all things and believe all things’. It is for them this book has been written. May they recognize the truth and welcome and establish it while they are still so open to it. Like the flowers in a garden, human beings do come in infinite variety, and the sun does shine on them all. The story of The Goode Sisters is meant to be shared between a parent and a child. It approaches the matter of gender identity gently and simply, and it also encourages discussion between the parent and the child. Perhaps, even, as the parents read the story, the naturalness of gender identity will become established in their own hearts as well.

The Dream Box
The Dream Box lies at the far end of Grandpa Zachary’s work bench. Tins of old paint, rusty tools and dusty wood shavings have kept it hidden for many years. Until one day – the day he tries to remember the past. Struggling with the frailty of his mind, Grandpa Zachary takes the little box into his big and wearied hands. Touching the delicate carvings around its base, he yearns to once again touch his past and the precious story of his own life – the uncertainty of WW1, the fun of climbing Alby’s Oak and the sorrows of the Acorn Army. Will Mr Cregin or Alby’s father ever return?
Written for a contemporary audience, this tender-hearted and beautifully illustrated story will help children from all backgrounds and social situations to understand the difficulties of loss – loss of home, friends, family and loss of memory, caused by dementia.

The Caterpillar and the Butterfly
From Michael Rosenblum, the bestselling author of Happily Ever Always: A Guide to Personal Transformation, Security, Confidence, and Healthy Self, comes a debut book for beginning readers. This ageless story introduces us to a caterpillar named “Fear”. Fear is afraid of everything – the other critters who share the garden, lightning storms, being bullied and making new friends. A chance encounter with a wise butterfly named “Faith” helps Fear find the courage within to experience the world in a bolder and more joy-filled way. Rosenblum’s message for children is simple yet profound: fear is just faith turned inside out.
“Children will realize that changing fear to faith is up to them as they explore this magical story. Bravo, Michael Rosenblum!”

One very proud golden winter pansy stands in the only sliver of light that reaches the flower bed, and oh, how it boasts to the others. This pansy needs to be taught a lesson in humility and the very seasons themselves help the pansy to realise the error of its ways.

To parents and guardians,
There are multiple studies that provide an undeniable link between a child’s vocabulary size and their levels of mental ability when they grow up.
The wider the vocabulary, the more effectively you can read and, more importantly, understand what you are reading. There are also multiple studies that prove a wider vocabulary enables a better ability for a child to express themselves and interact with the world around them.
So get reading, anything and everything! Books, signs, leaflets, anything with a word on it! Words are everywhere and all around us every day!
Also don’t forget we are never too old to learn something new, so yes adults, this applies to you as well!
You are never too old to learn a new word!
How many words do you know that start with the letter B?

The Almost True Story of Sandy Primary School
When Hurricane Soft and Fluffy completely flattens Sandy Primary School, an unlikely turn of events means that the children of Mr Bell’s class are handed a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. The government wants a bunch of ordinary children to not only design the new school, but to decide on its location, too. Unfortunately, the government can’t find any ordinary children, so Mr Bell’s class are chosen instead.
When the school is reopened, Mr Bell leads his bonkers class through perilous bus journeys, calamitous school fairs, an exhilarating treasure hunt and all-out parent warfare at the sports day. Gluey guinea-pigs, a local artist’s Big Plastic Windy Bottom and daft doctors are all part of the usual ebb and flow of Sandy Primary School.
This is a story that needs to be told, but who could possibly write it and would anyone believe that it was true? It is...almost.
