Charlie’s favourite beanie is missing — and it’s snowing!
With a little magic and a lot of imagination, he and his toy dog Patch head out on a snowy backyard adventure to find it.
My Missing Beanie is a heartwarming winter picture book about friendship, creativity, and never giving up.
Pickles is calm, steady, and thoughtful.
Zoe is chaotic, curious, and full of energy.
Together, they’re Wonderfully Me — a heartfelt story that celebrates calm, chaos, ADHD, and autism, and the beauty of being different.
Inspired by real-life dogs (and plenty of family chaos), Pickles & Zoe: Wonderfully Me is a warm, funny picture book about understanding ourselves, embracing neurodiversity, and finding balance in both the calm and the chaos.
