Books that inspire and encourage exploration.
We are a small, independent publishing company. Our books are beautifully illustrated with exploratory themes and promote an appreciation of nature.
Introducing our
NEW ABC Companion Book
We are delighted to team up with the Anywhere Book Club and produce our very first companion book. What is a companion book I hear you ask?
The ABC companion booklet will help you delve deeper into our enticing story. Consider how best to describe the eating habits of a mouse, create shimmering similes and discover why perseverance pays off… there’s soo much to discover!
The activities in this ABC companion booklet are suitable for children aged 5-8, although younger and older children may want to join in. We believe that picture books, like Any Trout About?, are not just for little children and can be enjoyed by all ages and provide excellent starting points for great discussions and fun games.
