As children's mental health awareness week continues, my next suggestion is:

Colour yourself calm🧚‍♀️

This bright and inviting book contains all sorts of pictures and patterns to colour and get lost in.

Aimed primarily at children, it has a cheerful approach and reassuring messages that encourage mindfulness and help calm anxieties.

It includes links to music to listen to online, chosen to complement the illustrations to colour, and help the reader focus and unwind.

Drop me a message or find the book here:

Lift the flap - Questions and answers about feelings✨

Age 6+

Why can't I be happy all the time? What can I do when I feel like exploding? Is it ok to give up?

This book is packed full of tips, tools and everyday situations to help kids think about and answer these BIG questions for themselves.

🏳️‍🌈February is LGBT history month🏳️‍🌈

Throughout this month I'll be sharing books published by Usborne that are perfect for anyone and everyone who is part of, or wants to show support to, the LGBTQ+ community🌈

The first book I'm sharing with you is "Proud of me" by Sarah Hagger-Holt🧚‍♀️

A bit about this book from Usbornes website:

"An accessible child-centred story about self-acceptance and the importance of opening up to those closest to you.

Becky and Josh are almost-twins, with two mums and the same anonymous donor dad.
Josh can't wait until he's eighteen, the legal age when he can finally contact his donor, and he'll do anything to find out more ­­­- even if it involves lying.

Becky can't stop thinking about her new friend, Carli. Could her feelings for Carli be a sign of something more?
Becky and Josh both want their parents to be proud of them...but right now, they're struggling to even accept themselves."

Message me for more details, or alternatively, find the book here:

This stunning book is on offer!😍

I don't know how I've missed this up until now🙈

The lights and sounds books are always fabulous, but this one just outranks them all. The illustrations inside are absolutely beautiful. I find them so soothing to look at🥰🧚‍♀️

If you would be interested in one of these drop me a message. Otherwise, I will leave the link in the comments to where you can find it☺️

Another one of Usbornes fantastic books in the sale!✨
Down to only £5.99😍

This book is ideal if, like me, you struggle to unwind and slow down👀

I am the sort of person who cannot sit still or shut off my mind, and sometimes I need a little prompt before I burn myself out😮‍💨

I always find books like this very helpful because they give me the tools I need to actually take care of myself🙂
Self-care is so important so this truly is the best gift you could give yourself!💕💗

Thought I'd post about a book that I finished a couple days ago. 🧡

I set myself a goal for the new year to read at least 12 books this year and I've made a good start on that.💗

🧚‍♀️Reminders of him - Colleen Hoover🧚‍♀️

This is the first book I've read by Colleen Hoover and I was very impressed! I absolutely love the writing style. The fact that you get to understand both people's view points.

It was an absolute rollercoaster of emotions the whole way through and I would highly recommend giving it a read if you're a fan of novels.

This book isn't one of the ones we sell, but I want to be completely transparent with what I'm reading and enjoying with you all and I still enjoy books that are not Usborne books.

I'm passionate about books in general so to be able to share that love on here is what is most important to me☺️

✨January Sale✨ an absolute bargain at £3.99!

I honestly cannot recommend the magic painting books enough!😍

🧚‍♀️They are a great way to unwind at the end of a stressful day - or at any time of the day. 🧚‍♀️

They're fantastic for children and adults alike. The perfect mess free activity that the whole family can enjoy. All you need is a pot of water to wet / rinse your paint brush, which is provided.

Drop me a message if they are something you're interested in, or alternatively check them out on the website by searching - Magic Painting Book☺️

✨January Sale✨ £6.99 - £3.99

With the way things are going in the world today and with global warming on the rise, this book is a great way to make children aware of things they can do to help the planet🌎
(Not only that, we adults can also get a refresher at the same time!👌🏻)

Small, everyday, things that we probably take for granted could make such a big difference and if our children are aware, they can give us a little nudge to keep us on track too😉😁

If you have any questions, please drop me a message. Otherwise, have a browse on the website☺️

https://usborne.com/gb/partner/freyasbookcorner

Oh! I love this! I've started to write in all the pretty notebooks I've been saving and it makes me so happy!

Being an Usborne partner means so much to me as I feel it's so important for everyone from young children and adults to have access to books✨

I remember having this Usborne book from 1992 myself as a child and my younger sister having it too. Now it's passed down to my young daughter who is thoroughly enjoying it🥰📖

If you have any queries about the books we sell, categories / age ranges, please don't hesitate to contact me or check out our website☺️
