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 is available to purchase on Amazon here – a fun little book to keep your children entertained during the Christmas holidays 🙂

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.

The Grubs’ Journey So Far

It’s been quite a journey since deciding to have a go at publishing a children’s book series all those years ago. With this blog, we will be going into a lot more detail about our past and present experiences in writing, illustrating and producing this series.

Over the last few years, we’ve had to take crash courses in Amazon’s KDP publishing software, digital media, WordPress and countless other publishing and social media platforms.

We’ve just developed the new Kiddies’ Corner area of our website that allows children to have fun whilst learning about the characters and the insects that they represent. We’re finally able to introduce our first few characters, so here they all are, settled nicely in Vegetable Row in the wonderful land of Flower Town. There’s Sally Snail, Stevie Slug, Sammie and Sophie Spider, Dr. Wallace Woodlouse and the Grub Twins, and lots more interesting insects to come, all with their daily life of adventure, drama and excitement.

We are about to publish the first four stories in the series. We are developing another four and will update you along the way.

In the meantime, this little post is just to thank those who have already subscribed to our little mailing list and to everyone else for their support and encouragement!
