Set during WWII. The Peters Family live in a quaint little cottage
in the heart of Kent, England. They have a pet rabbit called
Thumper who is highly intelligent. Squadron Leader Hal Peters is an
ace RAF pilot who can fly any plane day or night. He is famous for
being the best pilot in Britain. He is sent on many dangerous
missions across The English Channel. Meanwhile back in Kent,
Thumper is about to have his own dangerous adventure.
Little squirrel Gray loves playing with his sisters and friends in
the oak wood. However, after struggling at school Gray feels
misunderstood, stupid, and alone. On the day Gray decides not to go
to school he meets a wise owl who helps him to understand his
challenges and discover a few hidden strengths along the way. There
are around 870,000 school children in the UK with dyslexia many of
whom go undiagnosed. That's potentially 870,000 children feeling
like little Gray. I vividly remember those feelings in school and
sometimes still experience them today in my adult life. I was lucky
and have had my own versions of the wise owl, encouraging me
throughout my journey. I wrote this book because I wish that all
those children have their own wise owl in their lives; to help them
understand their gift and see its strengths, to feel understood,
smart, and supported. We likely all have a child in our lives that
is dyslexic and needs support. Be someone's owl, there can never be
too many.
This is the fifth and final book in the 'Hugo and Daddy' series and
it marks a major milestone for author Ric Hart who started the
series following the birth of his son Hugo, shortly followed by the
sad death of Hugo's mummy Jade. This episode sees Hugo starting
primary school and Ric could not be prouder... "To see Hugo
starting primary school felt like a million miles away four years
ago, but I did it, I got here, and I'm proud of every step." The
book shares the journey of Daddy taking Hugo to school for his
first day at primary school and sees them turning what can be quite
an overwhelming experience for children into something to embrace
with confidence. Ric sees the books as a way of turning negative
trauma into positive magic for Hugo, and hopes that, when he grows
older, Hugo will see how Daddy turned those tragic years into
something beautiful for him. Ric says: "I hope you enjoy our latest
and final adventure. Who knows what the future will bring, but I'm
embracing it with love, joy and inner peace with our wonderful boy
Hugo Jaden Hart."
Hart's Hero holds a powerful message in this children's superhero
book, all created for Hugo, our only son. Soon after the passing of
Hugo's Mummy Jade when he was born, his Daddy found huge inner
strength whilst dealing with his grief and wants to pass this on to
Hugo so he will learn confidence, and find courage and strength as
he grows as a person - Hart's Hero.

year knowing that he has his own Christmas book designed to light

This colourful and fun book provides inspiration to children
through adventure showing that even after losing a loved one, we
can still have hope on the horizon. The inspiration came from the
travels that Ric and Jade (Hugo's mummy) went on when they visited
Thailand, eventually getting married in 2015 at their dream
location in Koh Samui. They returned to Thailand for more
adventures in 2016 which led to the discovery of Jade's special
place, Koh Lipe. In coming to terms with the loss of Jade in 2018,
in this children's book Ric sets out to link the movements that he
and Jade took during their travels, and provides their son Hugo
with hope and excitement in looking forward to taking the same
steps with his daddy Ric in time to come.
This children's bereavement book ties pictures with simple
heartfelt words from Hugo's daddy Ric. Written as a poem and linked
by colourful illustrations to capture moments, memories and
feelings around the loss of Hugo's mummy, but also for the future.
It might just provide some help with a little one's loss

Binerkey to be proud of who he is. He also meets a lobster who
can't swim, a stoat and a cat with no tail. They all go to the
circus to find work but Binerkey is captured by an evil ringmaster.
A tender story to remind everyone that it's alright if you're
different, you're just great the way you are.
A book for children from one year and for adults of any age! I hope
adults will read with enthusiasm and expression to the little ones
and then engage all their senses by counting the animals with them.
Have the children trace the patterns of the animals; the rhymes
should make the adult smile as they interact with the child and
this will add to the little ones developing a love of numbers.

This humorous rhyming story is about Pete from Pluto, who makes
perfect pies. However, Pete is puzzled one day when his pies
disappear. Where were Pete's pies and what were Captain Pam's bold
pirate crew carrying into in the woods? Could hungry seagulls have
swooped down and eaten the pies? Luckily, Pete's best friend Fred
from planet Fop arrives to help Pete solve the mystery.
These rhymes are original and fun, as well as being educational.
This is a book for children to enable them to learn the gender
names of animals. So few children learn these now, even though it
is general knowledge and part of the vocabulary of the English
language. Sally King began writing using the simple names of
farmyard animals; she thought this would appeal to five to seven
year olds as well as their parents and teachers. Then, after some
research, her results found that eight to nine year olds were not
familiar with some basic names such as "sow" for a female pig or
"stag" for a male deer. The rhymes have been developed to include
more unfamiliar names such as those for a crab, a falcon or a
seahorse, in the hope of perhaps making the book appeal to older
children too. The repetition at the end of each rhyme engages the
child. In her experience teaching children of all ages for over
thirty years, Sally knows how much children love repetition and
rhyme. She sees the book, perhaps, as one that might be read aloud
by a parent, with the child joining in with the repeated lines or
perhaps a rhyme being read by a teacher to an infant class and the
class learning the names as they join in with the familiar lines.
The author has not come across any book similar to this one, that
addresses the subject of learning animal names, so she feels this
will meet a demand in the marketplace.
