Rhyming text illustrates the ways mothers take care of their children and why little ones love their moms.

This commemerative keepsake gift book includes prayers on praising God, remembering baptism, coming to confession, taking part in Holy Communion, and living a Christian life.

Utterly charming styling and heartwarming sentiments make this book easy to give. The prayers and blessings are chosen from traditional favorites that inspire good thoughts and can form part of a child's repertoire of prayers said at bedtime. The collection features a giftable padded cover wrapped in acetate for protection.

This first experience book for the very young is about growing up strong and well, promoting the values of healthy eating, exercise, and keeping clean. The charming pictures and simple text show toddlers in a range of situations that help them to grow up well-eating lots of vegetables; running, jumping, skipping, and cycling; and, of course, remembering to brush and brush and brush one's teeth. The book ends with a detachable height chart, with even more advice, so toddlers can see how they measure up. The concluding message is that it's not all about being tall, but being truly well.

An instantly appealing novelty heart-shaped book with an obvious 'I love you' message

This inspiring collection of prayers deals with the hopes and concerns that children have for the world and its people; from family and friends at home, to the environment and world peace. The prayers are chosen from a range of traditional and modern sources and are arranged thematically: For Planet Earth; For Creatures Great and Small; For Green and Growing Things; For Peace and Justice; and For a World Made New. Mique Moriuchi's bright paint and collage illustrations add a truly global feel. We share the earth we share the sky we share the shining sea with those we trust with those we fear: we are God's family.

A young angel and an appealingly illustrated animal together witness the events of the birth of Jesus. A little lamb sees the crowds on their way to Bethlehem, and wants to join in the fun himself. Off he sets on the road to Bethlehem, without his shepherd boy, but soon he becomes lost! He is saved by a watching angel who leads him to the stable where he finally meets the baby Jesus and is reunited with his shepherd. Charming illustrations from Red House Children's Book Award-shortlisted Kristina Stephenson make this an endearing read to share during the run-up to Christmas, looking at the familiar story from a new angle.

This collection of prayers provides children with the kind of comfort and hope that grown-ups find hard to put into words when a loved one dies. Prayers old and new combine with words from Scripture to offer consolation, comfort, hope, and reassurance. The collection can be dipped into for comfort, or read in its entirety, taking young children on the journey of accepting the change and loss found in nature (seasons, plants, creatures) through to a deeper acceptance of death and the belief in the enduring nature of love.

This wonderful collection brings together prayers of hopefulness for the end of each day in an anthology to treasure.
