A fabulous story about staying calm.
Annika is a panicker! She panics when her coat zip gets stuck on the way to a party.
She panics when she can't find her favourite toy at bedtime. Mum, Dad and her brother try to show her how to stay calm in a crisis. But when she gets locked in the house, with the only keys out
of reach, it's Annika who manages to solve the problem by herself.

Cinnamon Stitch is a princess who longs to be wild and free. Her parents, the King and Queen, want her to be a 'proper' princess.
One day, a bedraggled Cinnamon is brought back to the castle in disgrace after swimming in the slimy lake and clambering up trees. But this time, instead of arguing, Cinnamon starts to sew, much to the delight of her stuffy parents.
Has she changed? Is she going to be a 'proper' princess and behave nicely and make beautiful dresses for herself? Or is she planning something very, very different, right under their noses?

This picture book shows children aged 3-6 what consent is and why it's so important. With parent and teacher guidance included, it is an ideal resource to use in the classroom to help young
children understand issues of consent and personal boundaries, and to teach them to consider the feelings of others.
The book can be used in a variety of contexts - as an entertaining story, or as part of a lesson with the included guide for parents and carers - and its fun pictures and humour are guaranteed to keep the attention of young children across multiple readings.
An ideal tool to encourage early understanding of consent, Ask First, Monkey! helps to empower children to respect themselves and others, and teach them that a reason for 'no' is never needed - it just
needs to be respected.

Luka and The Food Cloud, by Juliet Clare Bell and Dave Gray
Luka loves judo, videogames and his guinea pig, Bruno. And he really wants to go to his first ever party- but what about the food there? Luka has ARFID (Avoidant/Restrictive Food Intake Diorder) and eats only a very small number of foods. If he can get help with his ARFID, and more important, if other people can learn to accept that he eats different food from them, will he finally be able to go to the party? A story of courage, resilience, and how we can become accepting of other people's differences.
