Trolls

Illustrated by Tiffany Larocca. 

Writing this children’s book with the intention to raise awareness on cyberbullying and Trolls. I want children to be educated on the effects negative comments can have on other children. I wish to inform children to be aware that there are people on the Internet who are going to target and provoke drama. Unpleasant intentions to hurt and put people down. Although we cannot stop every Troll online, if we raise more awareness to the damage that it does to individuals, we can teach our children how to treat other people to be kind on the Internet, we can teach them how to deal with feelings targeted on the Internet and how not to let them ruin their self- esteem and spirts.

My Dear Friends

My Dear Friends is a children’s book promoting friendship through the celebration of cultural diversity. It teaches inclusiveness through recognising shared interests and similarities.

A young deer named Jack only wants to invite other deer to his birthday party as he feels animals that look and sound different to him would not have any shared interests. With some encouragement from his mother he embarks on a journey to make some new dear friends.

Will Jack discover he and the other animals may have more in common than he first thought?

Illustrated by Helena Crevel

About the Author

Tamsin Macaffer is a mum of two (soon to be three) and first-time author of children’s book My Dear Friends.
 
Tamsin wrote My Dear Friends three years ago after having her first daughter, Sahara. As a mother, Tamsin wants to promote positive messages such as inclusiveness, acceptance and friendship to her children in a fun way that children not only understand but are excited by.
 
So, what better way than creating a story with fun, interactive animal characters that she could read to her children before bed!
 
It wasn’t until having her second daughter, Mila, and seeing how much both her daughters loved the book that Tamsin decided to have My Dear Friends published so that its important message can be shared with other young kids.

About the Author

Having owned a “Westie”, I have experienced the joy and pleasure of owning this magnificent breed. So I decided to write about mine and my family’s stories of our Angus and the adventures we all enjoyed

Terrier Publishing was created with a passion for West Highland White Terriers.

My vision for Terrier Publishing is to create a series of books with brand new adventures.

Writing these lovely illustrated childrens books reminds me of all the fun times we had together. My first book, Hi My Name is Angus, What’s Your Name, puts together a story of fun – an adventure we spent as a family and one that includes the many friends that Angus met along the way.

The next book in the series is Hi My Name is Angus, What’s Your Name – Angus’s Beach Adventure.

This takes the Harrison’s on a trip to their local beach and as always Angus gets up to some fun adventures of his very own.

Then the final book in the series is called Hi My Name is Angus, What’s Your Name – Angus Visits Nanna and Poppa’s Farm.

This takes the Harrison’s to visit Mrs Harrison’s Mum and Dad, who live on a large farm near Victor Harbor. There Angus has an exciting time, playing and meeting his old farm animal friend and making new friends along the way.

With Angus there were always days filled with excitement and fun, He’s the inspiration that has helped me create and capture my wonderful memories and deliver these amazing illustrated childrens books to you and your family. You can share the adventures of Angus with children and generations to come.

I hope that these books give you and everyone you love, the opportunity to enjoy and read together. Its been a joy for me creating these beautiful stories that are part of my time spend with my wonderful Angus.

Music in Words

Music making with rhymes for early childhood, a resource book for teachers.

Words by Jocelyn Lowinger
Illustrated by Karen Goldsmith

About the Author

Jocelyn Lowinger was born and educated in Christchurch, New Zealand.

She trained as both a Primary and Secondary teacher. After several years teaching in Christchurch she moved to Melbourne Australia where she undertook specialist training in music education.

Jocelyn has twenty five years’ experience as an early childhood music teacher.

In conversations with children, Jocelyn has gained insight into how thoughtfully chosen words can bring humour, sense and ease into a child’s world.

Like music, poetry holds within its energy the power to create, gives a voice to self-expression and facilitates the communication of stories, emotions and ideas between and among humans.

About the Illustrator

Karen Goldsmith trained as a Secondary Art Teacher working in ceramics and textiles.

Over the years Karen has made large papier mache sculptures, ceramic animals, mosaics and various textile creations.

Karen’s style is folky, whimsical and fresh and she manages to tap into the magical essence of childhood with her playful imagery.

For this project Karen has drawn from Jocelyn’s poems, aspects that resonate with her, bringing the words to life.
