Vera’s Gift — Whisperings from the Rowan Tree Some people leave us expensive presents. Others leave us something far more precious, without ever knowing it. Auntie Vera was a wonderfully eccentric Englishwoman with a passion for lipstick, peculiar remedies, weak tea, laughter and life itself. Through memories of childhood seaside holidays, family gatherings and a little flat in Southend-on-Sea, we discover how one extraordinary woman gave a young girl a gift that would take nearly seventy years to understand. A warm, funny and touching true story about family, nostalgia, self-acceptance and the peculiar little qualities that make us who we are. Perhaps you’ve known an Auntie Vera. Or perhaps there’s a little of Vera in you.
Dream is a magical unicorn with shimmering wings, a very special Dreamdar and a pocketful of fairy dust. Tonight she’s flying into a tiny seaside village to collect Prickles the hedgehog for an adventure beyond the lighthouse. A gentle bedtime story about imagination, feeling safe, discovering something new and finding that courage doesn’t always mean being fearless. Sometimes it simply means going a tiny bit farther than you thought you could. Created for children to listen, imagine and make the adventure their own. From Whispering From the Rowan Tree
Rose has agreed to do one simple thing while Nell Rowan takes a well-earned break: water the plants and air the cottage. Then an ordinary rabbit looks pink in the morning light, a well-meaning neighbour makes one innocent remark, and before Rose knows it, one thought has multiplied into an entire imaginary garden full of pink rabbits. A warm and funny Rowan Files story about the thoughts we can’t always stop from appearing—and discovering that perhaps we don’t have to follow every one of them.
