Simon James Books

The story of Emily’s whale in ‘Dear Greenpeace’ (Simon James) seems especially poignant these days when our household rubbish pollutes the oceans. A great story to get little ones thinking about caring for the planet.

Sally finds a limpet when she is exploring rock pools at the beach. When the limpet attaches itself to Sally’s finger, she and her friends simply can’t find a way to unstick it. This is a humorous story with an important message about leaving things in their natural environments.
