A sensitively-told story that addresses the tricky subject of
divorce with care and understanding, from Clare Helen Welsh and
Ã…sa Gilland. Laughing and playing together as a family on the
beach, it seems the happy, warm days of summer will never end.
Then, everything changes. Mummy and Daddy say they can’t live
together anymore, and sad, worried feelings begin to emerge –
It’s not fair! Was it all my fault? But, as time passes and the
seasons change, it becomes clearer that hard times won’t always
be quite so hard . . . A lyrical book about the difficult emotions
a child can feel when their parents break up, with an optimistic
message of hope and resilience. Gorgeous illustrations and an
emotive colour palette perfectly capture the nuances of emotion
felt by both the child and parents during a separation. Much like
Pat Thomas’s My Family's Changing, Claire Masurel’s Two Homes
and Patrice Karst’s The Invisible String, Everything Changes
offers a way to help children understand their feelings during big
changes in their family unit. Also available from this author and
illustrator: The Perfect Shelter PRAISE FOR EVERYTHING CHANGES:
"Parental separation is never easy, but this gentle picture book
handles the subject with tenderness and sensitivity . . . It's an
ideal book for offering gentle guidance to children who are
experiencing big changes in their family and processing the
feelings that come with it." – BookTrust "Everything Changes is a
beautiful, lyrical text which uses swirling, crashing waves and
stormy weather as a metaphor for emotions a young child might feel.
Ã…sa Gilland's stunning illustrations take us through the changing
seasons and remind us that, in life, sometimes everything changes."
– Teach Early Years
A lyrical, heart-warming message of love from someone far away When
Big Bear and Little Bear have to say goodbye, Big Bear tells Little
Bear about all the ways she'll send a hug from afar: I can change
my hug into bird song early in the morning, or into the sea so I
can wave at you when you are on the beach. Join Little Bear on his
adventure to discover all the many different ways to feel a hug
from a loved one, even when apart. A soothing and uplifting story
for every child who is missing someone.
My First Book of House Pets is a beautiful introduction to the
world of furry, fluffy, and all-around adorable pets for babies and
toddlers. Like other titles in the earth-friendly series Terra
Babies at Home, this book helps tots develop a connection with the
natural world and is made with FSC materials and nontoxic inks.
Simple and quirky text pairs with charming art by Ã…sa Gilland in
this book where animal lovers will learn about house pets in a
friendly and easy way while being introduced to basic concepts of
animal care and the environment. "Cats purr to communicate. They
purr when they are happy," we read. "Dogs love to play, and you can
teach them tricks." Readers will learn to make a fish face, that
hamsters are lively friends, and that lizards have cool names. And
that's not all: The book shows readers how to pick a pet from a
local shelter and the importance of keeping a pet healthy and
giving it tons of love!
