'Fairy Wrens know exactly when to begin singing, and it’s sooner than you think!

'In this beautifully illustrated story, a fairy wren lovingly builds a nest, lays her eggs and starts to sing a unique song. She sings the song over and over as she sits on her eggs. When the chicks hatch, their eyes are still closed and they have no feathers. But they can already sing for their food. And the song that they sing is the song their mother has been singing to them before they were even born.

'This charming story is a great introduction to a beloved bird and will spark conversations about preparing for a baby and the songs we sing together.' (Publication summary)

'I Love You is a reassuring story that centres around a baby’s typical day, from waking up in the morning to being tucked into bed at night.

'Rich with activities that babies love – eating, playing, meeting with friends, playing at the park, bathing – there are endless opportunities for babies to engage with the story and point out familiar objects.

'Told in rhyming text and covering early-learning concepts, such as colours, this little book is perfect for encouraging tiny fingers to explore and young minds to develop.'(Publication summary)

'With its soothing text and memorable cast of characters, Dance in a Ring is the perfect book to share with children before bedtime.' (Publication summary)
