UA on Amazon's Top 10
Congrats to Laura Dockrill and Jim Field, whose picture books have been included in Amazon's Top 10 Children's Books of 2025
An iconic picture book collaboration about feelings and acceptance from two of the most beloved voices in children's literature.
Beautifully crafted compositions together with simple die-cut design, reveal the story of a child who feels as though all their colours have disappeared. Despite the joyful orange balloon, the huge yellow sun and the bright green trees, the child still feels grey. That is until a reassuring hand reaches out and shares words of kindness. Soon the child begins to see the warmth of colour again, and understands that their colours will always be there and that they will always be loved, whether they feel grey or sunshine yellow. Laura and Lauren have created a beautiful book full of empathy and understanding that will provide comfort and hope to readers of all ages.
The Turtle Who Turned the Tide (Orchard Books)
A heartwarming tale of adventure, bravery and one baby turtle who changes her world for good - from the bestselling and award-winning creators of The Lion Inside.
On a midnight-black beach, it's time for a GRAND HATCHING. A rowdy crowd of animal onlookers have gathered to see which baby turtle will win the great race to safety in the sea.
But when Tula's brother loses his way, this baby turtle faces a difficult choice: will she choose to win the race or will she turn back to rescue her brother? And will the other animals stay on the sidelines, or will Tula's brave decision inspire them to join the rescue mission?
An inspiring and funny rhyming story of how we ALL have the power to change things for the better.
