Clever Mr Cat
Illustrated by Sarah Tuk
One day, a hungry cat walking in a wood, spotted a pigeon in a leafless tree.
“Good Morning Mrs Pigeon,” said the cat. “You are clever to be able to fly, but you’re not as clever as me.”
Using repetition, Apollo Starks’s fable, Clever Mr Cat is a great way to help young children become familiar with, recognise and learn new words, and this story, in the much loved tradition of Aesop, is not only darkly entertaining but also has a moral ending to the tale.
This book is available to buy on Lulu Bookstore. Retail price: £10.00

STITCH
An immortal black cat
A pair of magic knitting needles
An old woman who is more than she appears to be
And a carpet bag that thinks it is a dog
Who thinks knitting is magic?
Maisie Evans certainly didn’t but she was in for the surprise of her life. She didn’t know she had a spark within her, a special connection to the weave of creation, the ethereal energy which binds everything together.
But her new next door neighbour, Granny Stitch knew.
The old woman had been searching for half a century for someone with that spark to become a new Keeper, the protector of an ancient and magical pair of knitting needles capable of knitting anything their user could imagine and then transforming it into reality.
Despairing of ever finding a true Keeper, Granny Stitch had already tried to train another girl. But, realising she was dangerous the old woman rejected her. With vengeance in mind, Amber Trumpington-Smythe vowed to stop at nothing to obtain the needles and unleash demonic forces that could destroy everything Granny Stitch held dear.
Can Maisie overcome her own selfishness and fear, and learn to control the needles before they are warped to evil?
