A kind visit, when the author was seriously ill in hospital, together with a thoughtful gift of a little teddy bear inspired him to write stories of the world as seen through the childlike eyes of this bear. Though written for children in a Harrogate school they will appeal to children wherever they happen to be and in addition can lead anyone, of any age, to look again at many things we take for granted that can be misleading to a child. Indeed a good read for anyone of any age. The author has spent a lifetime working for and alongside children in England as well as in East Africa.

Met Die beste kinderverse van Tienie Holloway kan jonk en oud van voor af die vreugde van Tienie Holloway-verse ontdek en in die proses terugkeer na die eenvoud van doodgewone dinge – padkos, pannekoek, pantoffels wat slof, touspring, ’n windpomp, waatlemoen, ’n toktokkie wat klop, of sommer net appelkooskonfyt op ’n sny brood!

Vandag is daar amper nie ’n generasie wat nie hier en daar ’n versreël of strofe uit ’n Tienie Holloway-vers onthou nie. Ongelukkig is haar bundels dun gesaai en nog net hier en daar op ’n biblioteekrak in ’n plattelandse dorp te vinde. Die beste kinderverse van Tienie Holloway is saamgestel deur Wendy Maartens en van pragtige volkleurillustrasies voorsien deur Alida Bothma.

Hierdie boek bevat sagsinnige rympies met gepasde teksture waaraan jou baba kan vat en voel. Dit is die ideale manier om jou baba op 'n sensoriese wyse bekend te stel aan plaasdiere.

This is series 6 of Green Lane Estate stories. 1 - Bonfire Night 2 - The Storm 3 - Work Experience 4 - What Happened To Them All Suitable for age seven onwards

Follow Juney Brown Toes, a young and adventurous Hare, her friends Slow Freddy and Tufty Thomas, and many others, as they spend a remarkable 'Mad March' day, racing, chasing and being chased by friends and enemies alike. What will Juney do when the evil Grey Hound shows up unexpectedly in the middle of a dangerous 'Hare of the Dog' game, and will Farmer, and his daughter Samantha, be of any help to save poor Slow Freddy from the jaws of the Grey Hound! Hare's have been a fascination of mine for sometime. I've rarely seen one! I remember walking above Lancaster, my hometown, some years ago. It was a beautiful, crisp, sunny morning and the ground was covered in a layer of snow. In nearly every field we walked through a Hare would bolt from the hedge nearby and race across the snow covered ground. They were magical to watch, almost alien in appearance, and completely fascinating to me. I have since done research on them, and they become more interesting with every new fact I learn. They are ancient animals, and ever present in mythologies from around the world. They are low down on the food chain, and even buck rabbits have been known to kill Leverets now and then. Speed and stealth are their only defenses, and they have been clocked at near forty-five miles an hour, one of the fastest land animals. Anyway I digress, this book is about Hares, it is primarily written as a 'read to' book, for children of all ages. It is an adventure/fantasy short story, and Hares are the heroes, with a little girl taking a strong supporting role. The cherry-wood carving of the Hare actually exists in my garden, and its origins, bought from the side of the road from a bodger, are true too. Otherwise this is a work of fiction written out of a love and fascination for Hares, I hope you enjoy.

As a child, I begged my father to make up his wonderful stories as I tried to go to sleep. This book is a tribute to my father who steeped me in the family tradition of story telling. I found that making up stories was the only way to get my older daughter to sleep. This was in response to the frequent request of "stay with me while I go to sleep". After many years and now that both my daughters are grown up, I have put pen to paper to help distraught mums and dads get their small children to sleep. I wish you all sweet dreams
