The Flower Town Picture Board
We have now added The Flower Town Picture Board to our site, featuring our little Grub fans’ own interpretation of the colouring activities found in the back of our books.
We’re thrilled to see such a wonderful display of colour and creativity.
Click here to see our little collection – if you have any Grub Tales pictures to share, do send them through to us and we’ll add them to the picture board for you.

We’re so excited to share our happy news. We have 5 Grub Tales in Print and Ebook formats, now available on Amazon and CreateSpace! We’re thrilled at this massive milestone after more than three years of hard work. We’ve set up a links page here with details about where each book can be purchased.
We have lots planned for the next few months. We’ll be working on the next 5 tales and will also be taking part in some fairs in the London area. Details to follow.
In the meantime, we present to you our first 5 tales. Enjoy!

The Grub Tales – Soon in Print…
Thank you to everybody who downloaded The Grubs Move In during our free-book week. The response has been amazing. We’ve had a lot of requests for a printed book. We’re working on this right now, so we’ll eventually have each story in e-book and print formats.
In the meantime, Danny Dragonfly will soon be joining his friends in Kiddies’ Corner. Claire Cricket is also hopping around, waiting for her turn, so watch this space!

The Grubs Move In – Published!
We’ve published the first tale in The Grub Tales series!
For 5 days from Friday 21st August
download The Grubs Move In ebook for free
We realised that we had already done all the hard work, since the publishing process was fairly straightforward. We only encountered a slight glitch, as we thought we could publish books for free on Kindle. Apparently not! We could only do it by enrolling in KDP Select, which allows a maximum of 5 free days.
We’re very excited, and we hope your little ones will enjoy this first tale.
