Welcome to the Adventures of the Elerkin

Have you ever thought you spotted something in the hedge row, hill side or river bank and wondered what it was? Well wonder no more. Come with me on the adventures of the Elerkin. A sprightly small human-like creature with big ears and eyes, and long legs. We will introduce you to Tommto, Kevla, Shoza and many more Elerkin who’s adventures will leave you wanting more. From river bank to disused rail lines, you will be looking to see if you can spot the Elerkin running and hiding. We will take you on adventures smiling, laughing and even maybe a tear or two, giving you a look into the life of the little Elerkin below ground and up above the trees, in the air and on the river bank. The Elerkin’s Adventures are just about to begin, so hold tight and let’s go see what they have been doing down at Well and Vale.

We Don't Live There!

A bee living in the sea? A penguin in a pig sty? And what about that poor tiger stuck in a bee hive?! That’s not right!

These poor animals are living in the wrong homes – so where do they really live…?

Find out what other animals have got themselves mixed up and in the wrong habitat, and where they really belong.

After all, it’s just too cold for a poor mole down in Antarctica, isn’t it? And pigs wouldn’t do very well living underground, would they?

Where should a whale really live? In the ocean...or in the jungle with the monkeys and big cats?

War of the Ants

A delightful story, beautifully illustrated, that portrays the importance of self-esteem and confidence in one's ability to overcome adverse conditions. The language throughout the text is aimed to reinforce self-worth concepts in young children.

In the story War of the Ants, the author has cleverly illustrated the aspect of bullying and how the ants demonstrated confidence to confront a seemingly more powerful and oppressive opponent and to be victorious in 'battle'.   

Waiting For...

This charming illustrated book of verse outlines many real and imaginary ways that a cat will spend its time waiting for things to happen.

Cat lovers, of all ages, will be able to recognise their pets in many of the situations described in this book.

Watch out for:
Waiting For… (Part Two)

Voyager

In this charming story with illustrations, best friends Tod (a red squirrel), Freddie (a dormouse) and Jed (a water rat) decide to build a raft to sail on the lake they live beside. The name of the raft? ‘Voyager’.

A story to capture the hearts of children and entice them into a world of lakeside adventures.

Vi and Vincent the Jibber Jabbers

Amy’s off to get a vaccine today but her big brother isn’t impressed, as he wanted to stay home and play. But suddenly the vaccine starts talking to him – and him alone. Join us for a stimulating and enthralling journey to discover just how vaccines work and how they can keep so many of us safe and healthy.

Urmanou and The Girandos

Everyone needs friends and when the friendly Urmanou finds himself without any, he sets off to find his very own friends. He has been alone for so long, his adventures take him far and wide.

This is a lovely story for children of fun, adventure and the value of friendship.

Up on the Roof

The story of a family of seagulls: Pegasus the mother seagull, Nelson the father seagull and their three young chicks. How protective the parents are of their young, able to care and nourish them as they grow. The weeks before they are due to fly the nest, a disobedient chick doesn’t listen to his mother Pegasus and father Nelson. Much like human families, where mothers and fathers, parents, guardians play a crucial role in bringing a family up, lessons have to be learned and rules have to be followed. When you are young this can seem harsh at times, but it is done out of love for the safety of a young family. It is only when we are older and wiser that we can fully understand the sacrifices that parents make. The importance of family and the love which grows when we are young and into adulthood. Staying together as a family can be hugely rewarding as grandchildren enter the family.
I hope in some way that children can read this book and understand the values of family through the eyes of the seagull family. After all, what is more comforting than coming home to your family where the home is full of love and you feel safe?
A family of seagulls move in but will they all stay together, ‘up on the roof’?

Uncle Fred and his Magic Shed

It looked like an ordinary garden shed. He looked like everyone’s friendly uncle. She was a little girl who loved adventure. At the flick of a switch and a ‘whoosh’, they were off looking for that adventure.

Uncle Fred, Olivia and a gnome called Toby visit hungry camels to bring them a treat that neither they, nor Olivia, will ever forget.

Ugly Ollie

Poor Ollie struggles to fit in after hatching. He isn't like the other ducklings, and he feels rejected by everyone he meets. Join Ollie on his journey to discover who he really is.
