A gentle, empowering picture book that reframes children’s understanding of their bodies as living maps of experience, memory, and selfhood.My Memory Map invites young readers to see their bodies differently. Rather than something to be judged or compared, the body becomes a map—marked by freckles, scars, birthmarks, and changes that tell the story of who we are and how we grow.Written with warmth and sensitivity, the story encourages children to notice, name, and value the marks that make them unique. Each mark carries meaning: a reminder of adventure, resilience, family, or love. Through this lens, difference becomes something to celebrate rather than hide.Ideal for shared reading at home or in the classroom, My Memory Map supports conversations around body awareness, self-acceptance, and emotional literacy in a way that feels accessible and affirming rather than didactic. Grace Fraraccio’s expressive illustrations add depth and warmth, offering visual cues that invite empathy and reflection.The book speaks directly to children navigating early questions of identity, while also providing caregivers and educators with a valuable tool to counter negative body messaging and build confidence from a young age.

Tillfälligt slut
Turning Cartwheels tells the story of Emma’s desperation to join queen bee Carly’s Cartwheel Club, who show off their acrobatic tricks in the playground at lunchtime. Week after week Emma lines up for a try-out, only to be told by Carly that she hasn’t made the cut. When Emma is finally accepted, she finds that Carly’s rules and requirements take all the joy out of cartwheeling, and that being part of the gang isn’t as awesome as she expected.The book explores themes of determination, persistence and self-confidence, but has a central focus on bullying — in particular, the subtle, underhanded social bullying often experienced by primary school-aged girls. The character of Carly represents the ‘frenemy’ that many young girls encounter — a strong, popular girl who seems to be their friend, but whose behaviour is often actually manipulative and mean.While girls often gravitate towards ‘frenemies’, preferring to stay on their good side and remain part of their social group, Turning Cartwheels introduces the idea that there are alternatives, and that children should choose their friends based on kindness, and having fun together. A sensitive and compassionate guide to finding true friendship, this story will help any young person struggling to find friends who make them feel like they belong.
