Lukie and Harry, His Pet Snake

For parents who have unique and diverse children. This book has been written for children who do not fit into the norms and love snakes and lizards. Children with special needs have many special gifts. As the mother of a special need child, I have learned many lessons. I have learned patience, tolerance and kindness in the face of adversity. There have been many uphill battles to receive services for my son. Despite all this, he continues to smile and he lights up my world. At one point, my son was nonverbal for three years. His method of communication was pointing or screaming. The first word he spoke was ‘teddy’ and I could not stop crying for three days. To all parents who have special needs kids, I wrote this book to bring hope to the parents and the kids. My son now is able to speak and I cherish every word that comes from him. Animals can get through to kids when human adults cannot. My son loves animals. His favourite are snakes, lizards and spiders. Though our battles during times of adversities can be very strong, we as parents are required to be warriors for our children so that one day they may have their voice in society. Every child deserves a right to make their contribution to society by their diversity, their brilliance, their uniqueness and by just being children.

Milk, Wool and Cheese

Snowflake the lamb had just been born and her little legs wobbled as she tried to get to her feet and cuddle up to her mum’s thick woollen coat. All around there were other lambs running and jumping in the lush green grass. Spring had arrived and all seemed well with the world.

Just across the fence other new lives were just beginning. Newborn calves were following their mums around, trying to catch up for another drink of milk. Finally, Bella reached her target and drank until her little tummy was full.

Looking on, chained up to a fence, was Tilly, a young goat whose entire life was to be devoted to keeping the grass cropped alongside a busy road. Tilly had been taken away from her herd when she was barely a year old. She had no company and only saw someone when she was moved further along the fence to eat more grass. She was very lonely and got very frightened when large vehicles sped past, leaving a rush of wind and dust behind them.

In a distant disused barn across the fields far away was a little donkey, all alone and hungry. She didn’t have a name and her hooves had grown very long from being trapped in a small space with no one to look after her. She had grown very thin as she only had a small supply of dirty hay to eat. She had been forgotten when all the other animals on the farm had been moved away.

This is the story of four unlikely friends who find themselves living the life of their dreams.

Monday May

“Not for nothing have I learnt to do eleven, whole, mind-shattering bucks.”

Monday May is a spirited, chestnut mare, born to be a racehorse. Having taught herself how to kick, rear and bite, she is determined not to be broken in, and do everything herself without the help of humans, preferring to win a race without a jockey.
She is soon sent off for “re-training” but never loses her high opinion of herself and her wonderful abilities. As the book progresses, she gets nearer and nearer to the “meat man” until there is an unexpected rescue.
This book is suitable for adults as well as children. Written in a humorous fashion, it tells how in today’s world, there is still much ill-treatment of horses, often through ignorance, not intent.

“Monday May is an addictive novel and a must-read for anyone who loves horses. I wouldn’t want to ride her, but I couldn’t put it down.” Charlie Deutsch – Jockey.
