About me...

Hi there! For those who don't already know me, I am a Mum to 3 boys and a little girl, ages from 9 to 21 years. I have many many years of sharing stories with my children, and other peoples children in a previous job in a nursery, and now working with families in the community. I am passionate about childrens books, and seeing how a good story can captivate a child's imagination and transport them to another magical world! I am also very keen to teach new parents how reading to their children during pregnancy and from birth, can make a positive impact to their child's brain development and give them a head start to a successful future! I am looking forward to sharing all my knowledge and introducing you to the fabulous Usborne collection of books for all ages of children to create your own family library! Thank you for reading Sarah
