‘A lyrical and loveable story of a big family get together at Grannie’s house. Accompanied by a noise commentary: the ‘clink clank’ of plates; ‘tip, tip, struggle, juggle’ as little Jay Jay reaches for the sweetie tin, and pictures as warm as a fuggy kitchen, this book transforms a family dinner into something memorable.’  (THE INDEPENDENT MAGAZINE review)

CATCH (Scholastic)
Short listed for the Nottingham Book Award 2005

‘Kiona and her Mum are playing catch in the garden, but Kiona finds it difficult to catch the various items Mum throws for her. For all sorts of reasons, the little girl just can’t catch anything – sometimes the little things in life can be just too difficult. However Mum knows how to make this right and the story ends in a most satisfying manner. This is a large format picture book with bright, primary colours on every page. The text, which is simple and repetitive, will appeal to young children. There is an overall feeling of gentle affection in the story that makes it the perfect bed-time story for the very young. Delightful.’  (BOOKTRUSTED NEWS review)

HEY CRAZY RIDDLE (Frances Lincoln)
‘Here are seven boisterous stories from the Caribbean explaining phenomena such as why wasps can’t make honey and agouti have no tail, how goat got more food and dog lost his bone, ending with a wonderful version of ‘Hey Diddle Diddle’ that is as zany as the original rhyme. Wit and language play bounce off every page in these stories awash with rhymes, rhythms and alliteration. This is a thoroughly entertaining collection that begs to be read aloud or performed for children to understand how language can be used effectively to bring out the sounds and sheer fun of words. Vibrant illustrations and a design that incorporates lots of white space add further to the book’s appeal.’ (BOOKS FOR KEEPS review ). For 6 to 8yrs.
