'Everyone Wants an Octopus Book! is a thought-provoking picture book about how everyone deserves to see themselves in books.

'Inky the octopus wants to read a book with a character that looks like them. With their best friend, Quack the duck, they scour every shelf, but all they seem to find are more books about ducks! Why aren't there any stories with octopuses? They decide maybe it’s time for one.' (Publication summary)

'Walking Your Human is a light-hearted look at the very different ideas dogs and humans have about what makes for a good walk. Readers and their dogs will howl with laughter at this hilarious story with colourful illustrations and memorable characters.'

'The fifth Squishy Taylor book opens with Squishy playing space-stations with her half-sisters Jessie and Vee (whom she refers to as her ‘Bonus Sisters’ throughout the series). This sets the scene for the book’s space-themed antics. While peering through their telescope to view a meteor shower, the girls notice something else intriguing. Someone resembling an astronaut is on a nearby rooftop, with what looks to be a rocket with visible sparks flying out. ...'
