Research is proving what poets, artists, children and so many people know, that spending quality time in nature can support us with feelings of anxiety. Our new trio of therapeutic fairy tales, The Waves, The Sky Fox, and Into the Forest explore how.
Coming out soon, these three illustrated books take the themes of anxiety, isolation and OCD, exploring how nature might serve each child character in their personal and emotional journey.
This new set of books are illustrated again by Sarah Pimenta, a wonderful intuitive artist, whose images and colours bring so much vitality and grounding. When I hand over my stories to her in their word form, I never expect what images she’s going to bring back… they always surprise and move me, which makes Sarah the best creative collaborator I could ask for.
