When Little Pup finds himself at the shelter,
he doesn’t know quite what to do.

Little Pup needs a friend… but who?

School and Nursery visits:
As an experienced primary school teacher and mother to four, I know the importance of inspiring a love of books from an early age. In my children’s books I bring my knowledge of developing early literacy skills together with an understanding of creating characters young children will connect with. From the engaging language to the emotive illustrations, my books are created to encourage young children to actively participate in the reading experience.
**I am always happy to carryout school and nursery visits. Please contact me here for more information.**
Here are some of the wonderful pieces of work carried out by the children of Georgian Gardens Primary School when I visited their reception classes in book week 2020:
