I Miss You Brown Bear
This book was written in the aftermath of Covid19 when children had lost or were separated from loved ones. I felt a book was needed to help children process this grief. In this book Millie looses her bear and she doesn't find him. She grieves for her loss and her brother Ali gives her ideas of things to do to help 'a little bit'. With the help of her brother eventually Millie can look back on her friendship with Brown Bear with a happy heart and not sadness. She can be thankful for the good times they had together.
​
This book is for any child who is missing someone they love. If a child has lost a loved one through Covid and would like a paperback book contact me or download a free copy.

Can We Go Outside to Play? Not Today
I wrote this book for my daughter during the Covid 19 lockdown. She was struggling to understand and it really helped her. I am offering it to other parents, hoping it might help them!
​
The characters are based on my children. Millie and Ali are bored during lockdown. Can they find something to do inside while the virus bug goes around?
