Abstract

"Things in this world are always appearing and disappearing. But does a stone really vanish when it turns into sand? And do lost socks really go missing? And, more importantly, do people ever really disappear? This book holds lots of ideas to help you answer the age-old question: where do we go when we disappear?"

Recommended for ages 5-7.

Abstract

Drawing is what Ramon does. It's what makes him happy. In one split second, all that is changed. A single reckless remark by his older brother turns Ramon's once carefree expressions into joyless struggles. Lucky for Ramon, his younger sister sees the world differently. She opens his eyes to something far more valuable than getting things just "right."

"Inspired by a true story, SuperDaisy tells the tale of a little girl undergoing cancer treatment. Told in rhyme, Daisy lets her imagination run wild as she dresses up in fancy dress, coming to the rescue in different and exciting scenarios. In her superhero disguise, Daisy is able to shake off her worries about being unwell and embrace a freer world - and become the superhero that she really is. Gently and sympathetically told, this is an inspiring story perfect for young children encountering illness for the first time"--Publisher's description
