These are the stories of four animals and their friends. There are
two cats - Cher Khan and Tabby. Cher Khan is a young ginger cat and
is rather vain. He loves attention and is forever looking at
himself in any mirror he can find. Tabby loves to eat, and anything
will do. A cat who likes his independence, he is quite a Jack the
Lad, but has a very kind heart. KoKo is a West Highland Terrier who
is very good at sorting out problems. Blackbird is, well, a
blackbird, excellent at singing. They all live in the village of
Little Chirp and get along together well. Mostly! Nearby is the
town of Chirp, which has a circus, shops, village green, a
playground and a library. In Little Chirp live Jamie and Leah, who
reside at Little Chirp Farm. Jamie is a farmer, and the couple make
a good living from the wonderful food Leah produces from the farm.
Jamie is also a great handyman. Dr Blister runs the village
veterinary surgery. He is a good-hearted chap who will help any
animal in trouble. Later on, we will meet the tigers, whose growl
is far worse than their bite. The animals all speak Animal
Language, which is not a difficult language to learn. Most humans
are too lazy to learn it, and although young children can speak it,
many grow out of it. However, animals understand EVERYTHING that we
say.
Join the PAW Patrol on a brand new adventure in Barkingburg. When

brave Rescue Knights save the day and rescue the baby dragons? The

wonderful, but extinct, Dodo from Mauritius. The witty text brings
each animal to life and celebrates their quirks and
characteristics. Includes a playful, charming narrative along the
bottom of each spread, which sees Brown Bear gradually bringing all
the animals together as they travel the world, celebrating each
country as they go. Filled with fascinating facts about each animal
and country, the text also touches gently on conservation issues
related to each animal and their habitat. The illustrations inject
warmth and humour into the narrative, making the animals the stars
of their respective countries!

A humorous take on the unicorn trend, Unicorn NOT Wanted is
funny picture book starring an uninvited unicorn that hijacks the
story.​ "There are way too many unicorn stories, so this book
will be A UNICORN FREE ZONE! And it will be set where you
definitely won’t find unicorns... THE WILD WEST! This is an
anti-unicorn, unicorn story, which pokes fun at the never-ending
stream of unicorn books, but then becomes what it sets out
not to be... thanks to a unicorn intruder! AÂ unicorn arrives
in disguise as a horse on the first pages, but when her hat is
removed and her horn exposed, chaos ensues... It's really
silly, but has a positive message of not stereotyping people and
being yourself.
