Our new book, My Dad is a Witch, introduces children to a different type of family where a brother and sister have two dads. Both of their dads are very different but both love them very much. The little boy tells his friends that one of his dads is a witch. His friends don't believe him and he tries to explains to them why. Seen through the eyes of a 5-year old, the story makes for an entertaining look into the workings of differently structured families. This book delivers an important message: non-stereotypical families are not weird. They are just different.
And some of our books do! Our 'The Neeps' book got its own knitted Turnip toy created by crafty Anastasia from Latvia. Our 'Tommy the Learned Cat' book which is coming out in September to coincide with Rugby School's 450th Anniversary got it's own lovely Tommy the Cat toy crafted by talented toy-maker Natasha from Ukraine. And our 'Dom the Dough Ball' book which is in very early stages of production is getting its own pizza dough ball fluffy toy which Natasha is working on now. Lucky-lucky books! And lucky boys and girls who got to play with the toys while their grownups are reading to them!
