Silly Jack

Silly Jack

Holly Surplice

Jack is so silly he doesn't even know what kind of animal he is. He tries to be a cow, a chicken, a dog, and even a goose - but none seems quite right! With the help of his farmyard friends, Jack discovers exactly what he is - a horse, of course! The rhythmic text makes this colourful book perfect to read aloud. The double gatefold on the front and back covers includes pop-out-and-play farm animals, a farmyard scene and a game.

Sam and Soraya

Built by Sam & Soraya

In 2022 we welcomed our little twins into the world. Since then we have been building up our home library full of baby books to try and give our boys the best start.

While books with characters called Sam are found in bookstores and charity shops throughout the land, we struggled to find any books with Soraya, Jasper, or Xander.

This gave Soraya the idea to compile a list of books for new parents and then Sam decided to turn it in to a website.
