Sarah lives in Hertfordshire with her husband and two grown-up children. She has had a varied career, including a short stint in the police force; a residential social worker, and for twenty years as a teaching assistant in a special needs school. She also volunteered for her local hospice. She enjoys all things creative, and can often be found in her shed with various ideas buzzing around her head.
Modern life can present many challenges for young people as they strive to cope with growing up in a world which, as a result of peer pressure and unrealistic expectations, can sometimes just seem overwhelming. Charlie is such a child, and one who finds that the solution to these pressures may be found closer to home, and in an unexpected location. Charlie realises that she is not alone in experiencing these feelings and that help, and support is readily available. Charlie discovers where this support can be found and who can provide it in her role as a cherry picker.
When someone we love dies, it can be very hard to find the words to explain to others, and ourselves, how we feel. After all, feelings are feelings. They’re not words.
Robbie is a young person who is struggling to voice his feelings. His dad has died, leaving him, his mum and his little sister.
It takes a rainy day and some puddles to unlock the overwhelming emotions that Robbie is feeling.
Totally thrilled and bowled over that a friend is ordering copies for ALL of her year 6 leavers! I hope the message of the story stays with them…
I’m really hoping to get my book out to primary schools. I hope schools (and parents/carers) will see this us a worthy message, which can easily be adapted for a practical exercise. 🤞
So grateful to my family and friends for their love and support in purchasing a copy of my first book for young children. Hope it was worth the wait…❤
