Beautiful nurturing book, that is also lots of fun!
Even though many years have passed, I remember being a child. Vividly. I especially remember how tough it could be, all those stressful times and secret worries that I was unable to share with the adults in my life. If only I'd had this wonderful book! Audio or kindle, either would have helped.'Imagine' is a calming, soothing immersion experience for children. Each story, either read alone, read aloud or listened to on audio, brings happiness and 'a great big hug', with lots of imaginative fun on the way. Like another reviewer here I especially loved 'The Forever Tree.' I found it helpful too! I have to post this extract...'Sad things can happen. Difficult things can happen.Good and exciting things can happen!Just like the seasons, everything comes and goes.You are not the seasons. Just like the Forever Tree, you can stand tall and safe through all the seasons.'A wonderful message for anyone of any age. Hilary Hawkes beautiful book is providing love and nurture for children, acknowledging all the problems and difficulties they may face. What higher recommendation could there be?
