Carmen Saldana – Cleo the Completely Fine Camel
Cleo is a COMPLETELY FINE camel. Really, everything is just great. Honestly. A sweltering hot day? Well, Cleo has never felt better! Is she thirsty? No really she’s fine. A desert sandstorm? Not a problem, because Cleo is FINE (even while buried under two feet of sand). It’s only when an ostrich who tells it like it is turns up that Cleo has the courage to admit that, just maybe, she’s not fine at all.
Illustrated by Carmen Saldana, this lovely story gently and humorously advises young children that it’s all very well putting on a brave face but not to the detriment of your own well-being.

Christiane Engel – Movement and Migration
There are numerous reasons why people move and migrate: to escape from war, conflict, natural disasters, poverty, or famine. Driven by a desire to find a safer place for their families in a country that offers better education, healthcare & a more stable economy.
Everyone in Britain has migrants in their family history – even if they have to travel back thousands of years to find them. From the Ice Age to the present day, find out how the movement of people to and from Britain has shaped the UK.
‘Movement and Migration’ illustrated by Christiane Engel is available from Oxford University Press.
Daniel Egneus – Tisha and the Blossom
We all have busy lives and little Tisha and her family are no exception. With life always moving at such a pace, Tisha must ‘hurry up’ to get ready for school on time, ‘hurry up’ to finish her drawings before break time, and ‘hurry up’ to tidy up before she goes home. But hurrying up all the time can be exhausting. Thankfully, Tisha’s Mummy knows a special game to help them all slow down when everything becomes too much . . .
‘Tisha and the Blossom’ is a beautiful story sensitively illustrated by Daniel Egneus about allowing more mindfulness and stillness into children’s lives. Available this April from OUP.
