This week is anti-bullying week, a week to raise awareness of the issues surrounding bullying, inclusivity, and kindness.
For our young people, growing up and navigating school and friendships can be tricky, especially in this modern world. Sometimes it can be hard knowing what is the right thing to do, or how to help a friend. These titles are beautiful examples to promote kindness and empathy in our young ones, helping them learn how to be kind to themselves, and others around them.
Links and prices are on the individual pictures.

I literally cannot describe to you just how BEAUTIFUL these books are in real life 😍 each one is filled with little twinkly lights on every page. If you look at my last live video, you will see the Twinkly Twinkly Christmas Tree which I had delivered today for Bertie. It’s even better than I imagined, and I’ve heard A LOT of good things about it!
To celebrate all things Twinkly, and because I think EVERYONE needs at least one copy of these stunning books in their lives, I’m offering them for £10.50 each this weekend until 10pm on Sunday 7 November. Get in touch if you’d like a bit of gorgeousness adding to your child’s bookshelf ♥️
I’ve put links to my website in the caption for each book if you want to see them in more detail.

These advent calendar collections are brand new this year, and they are going to fly out when they come into stock in September.
I’m taking pre-orders now to ensure I can secure copies for all of my lovely, fellow Christmas addicts, so please comment below or PM if you would like to take advantage of this amazing offer.

Each advent features 24 magical books to build the excitement in the run up to Christmas Day. And the best bit is they can be enjoyed over and over again once the festive season is over!

Created in the style of a tradition advent calendar, the books are tucked away behind numbered doors for children to find and open each morning.

If your children have weekly reading targets like mine do, then this is a fun way to achieve it in the run up to the big day!

Not long now until silly season begins, I can’t wait!!

It’s been one of those weird weather afternoons. Sunny one minute ☀️ , raining the next ☔️ . And not exactly warm! We’ve kept the showers at bay enjoying a spot of Origami which the children have then used in imaginative play. These books are super good fun, and there are lots and lots of sheets to boot. So weeks worth of fun activity making to be had, perfect for weekends and the summer holiday 😊 All for only £8.99 each!! And the adults even had fun too 😉

🤩 THEY’RE BACK!! 🤩

So, if you missed it, Thursday was World Bee Day 🐝
I just love those bumbling little buzzers, which is why I was SO excited when this brand new book launched!
