Bethlehem has never been so busy! Leah is the innkeeper’s
daughter, rushed off her feet. Then in the starlight, miracles
begin. This beautiful, fresh new telling of the Nativity story,
through the eyes of young Leah, brings wonderful humanity to this
familiar tale.
One day Orangutan heard a faint noise. Hardly a noise at all –
just a distant droning. Then there was a crash! Smoke seeped
through the canopy… Orangutan and her family live in a vast
emerald forest, bursting with life. She teaches her babies what
food to eat, how to swing through trees, how to build a sleeping
nest. Life is good… until one day a monstrous machine tears
Orangutan’s tree from the ground. The family have to leave the
emerald forest – but where can they go to? This powerful and
moving picture book is set in tropical Sumatra, an island that has
lost almost half its rainforest cover in recent years. The story
graphically describes the reactions of an orangutan family to the
destruction of their age-old home, but also shows how wildlife
campaigners are bringing hope for the future.

life in a strange country. But as World War 2 looms, there is a

The Colour Thief is a simple, heart-warming tale which helps to
open up the conversations around depression and to support young
children whose families have been affected. We follow a young boy
who loves spending time with his dad, doing fun things together.
When his father becomes sad and distant, he doesn't understand and
believes he has done something to make his dad so, despite being
told otherwise. Time passes and his father begins to get happier
again and they have fun together like before. Narrated from the
child's perspective and illustrated with beautiful pictures by the
award-winning artist Karin Littlewood, this is the perfect book to
read with children aged 7-9 years old who are trying to understand
the cause and effects of depression, and reassure them that
depression passes and their parents are not lost to them. 'It's
crucial kids learn about depression; that it's nothing to feel
ashamed about and they are not alone - one fourth of the world
knows what it feels like. It's going to be them that break the
stigma, not us.' Ruby Wax 'This book brings freshness and vibrancy
into a world often portrayed as dark and hidden, and it can help
take away the feelings of helplessness and fear that can make
families feel so alone.' Marjorie Wallace CBE, Hon FRC Psych,
Founder of SANE. 'Vividly depict[s] a young boy's reaction to his
father's depression... it's worth sharing this clever and heartfelt
book with the kids in your life.' - Elise Moon (6) and Nick Moon

At the beginning of time, a goddess descends to Earth and finds
that parts of the land are dry and the plants are wilting. The
goddess is inspired to make enormous clay pots to collect rainwater
so the animals can drink. While she works, her daughter makes a
necklace and the animals show their gratitude by adding colours to
its dull beads -- the flamingo gives its bright pink, the zebra its
stripes and the ant a deep red.
