Free eBook: The Book of Hopes

The Book of Hopes: words and pictures to comfort, inspire and entertain children in Lockdown

This is a collection of stories, poems and illustrations from over 100 children’s authors and illustrators.

The Book of Hopes aims to comfort, inspire and encourage children during lockdown through delight, new ideas, ridiculous jokes and heroic tales. There are true accounts of cats and hares and plastic-devouring caterpillars; there are doodles and flowers; revolting poems and beautiful poems; and there are stories of space travel and new shoes and dragons.
