Funny, emotional and uplifting picture book about separation and
love, to help children understand their emotions. Everyone loves
everyone in Tess's house, but when Tess has to leave for school for
the very first time, she is worried that her family's love might
not stretch that far. Mum explains that love is like a string, it
connects people together even when they are far away. At school
Tess notices that all the children have strings! Some are new, some
are old, some stretch a long way, and some even stretch right up
into the sky. But what happens when a string breaks? Love is the
third in a trio of feel-good picture books from author Corrinne
Averiss (Joy (2018), Hope (2019)) - a pure delight from start to
finish. A wonderful story that subtly tackles difficult topics of
death, grief, separation and overcoming anxiety.
By the author of Once Upon a Unicorn Horn, shortlisted for the 2020
Waterstones Children's Book Prize. The second title in a new series
about how magical creatures came to have their gifts. Do you know
how dragons got their fire? It all began once upon a magic kingdom,
when a fearsome, terrifying dragon stalked the land. He was so mean
he ate kittens for breakfast, he was so scary he made children
scream, and he was so evil that he blew huge storms out of his
jaws, which is why it was always so cold. Or so the stories said.
When two children called Freya and Sylas met the dragon, they found
something very different indeed...
Jody just can't bring himself to throw hard, so the ball usually falls short of its mark. Taunts of "catcher's got a glass arm" echo in his ears. Then injury is added to insult when he's beaned by a wild pitch—and suddenly he's having trouble hitting as well as throwing. What good is a ball player who's afraid of the ball?
