Books with author J N Paquet

On Christmas eve, travelling to the city centre, A boy and his lovely Mummy. Our hero, Oliver. After the Christmas Market, they had been hanging around, And The T-RRIBLE they met… in the London Underground! “Oliver, I’ve got some T-RRIBLE news, again!” The little monster shouted, as he got on the train. “Somebody wants to ruin Christmas at the least! Stealing both Father Christmas’ Nice and Naughty Lists!” “Who would possibly do that?” Oliver asked, quite surprised. “His name is IMPO-SSIBLE. He is bad and well-disguised. He is also destroying all the children’s presents! He doesn’t care. He doesn’t think. He is very unpleasant!” When the train stopped, The T-RRIBLE invited Oliver, To come along with him on a great new adventure. “Come with me, Oliver! We can still save Christmas!” The friends stepped through a magical door, with Mum the only witness. * * * * * * * "The T-RRIBLE" is back in a new special Christmas adventure. A naughty T-RRIBLE wants to ruin Christmas! He has stolen both Father Christmas’ Nice List and Naughty List! What is going to happen? Will Oliver and The T-RRIBLE save the day? With his new book “The T-RRIBLE 2,” children’s author J.N. PAQUET, as in his previous children’s books, has created yet another very special story which stimulates the children to engage with their own imagination and have an enjoyable reading experience, both with their parents, teacher or educator and on their own. Its educational aim is to drive the fun-learning and the reading comprehension through an extraordinary story. Among other moral values, the story promotes team working and friendship, explains how important it is to accept and embrace our own differences as well as the others’, and most importantly teaches about redemption and forgiveness. Written in rhymes, the story contributes to the children’s linguistic awareness and development. Through rhymes and the use of a specifically elaborated vocabulary, it also teaches the children the benefits of making decisions, developing ideas and thinking on their own. The colourful handmade illustrations, all created and painted by the author himself, open the children to his colourful new world where they will, episode after episode, get to meet some funny little creatures, visit their lands and kingdoms, and discover their honey trees secret. Although it was written for all children aged 6-9, it has a special appeal to the children living in bilingual families. Learning from each other and accepting one another is all that is needed to build a better world… right here, on Earth! SUPPORTERS “The T-RRIBLE 2” and J.N.

The animals return with yet another fun-learning book, "The Book of The Animals - Alphabet Together" for young children to learn their alphabet with their favourite friends!This year, more than ever, parents want to buy decent gifts for their little ones rather than something which is going to give them 15 minutes entertainment on Christmas Day and never gets played with or looked at again. Parents want something to capture their children’s imagination instead.Wishing for a Fun-Learning Christmas? Don’t look further! It’s going to be a “Book of The Animals” Christmas. The popular bilingual children’s books series is indeed expected to be one of Amazon and other leading book retailers’ top sellers this Christmas, thanks to its low price tag (less than £10 in paperback for a bilingual book and less than £2 in eBook format) and mainly its universal appeal. The collection of seven books about the children’s favourite animals who, episode after episode, refuse to do what they are told looks set to make it as unexpected contenders for this year’s Christmas bestseller.Written by author and journalist J.N. Paquet and handmade illustrated, the delightful “Book of The Animals” series tells the story of what happens when the animals in the stories (a frog, a cow, a fox, a cat, a dog…), like many young children, don’t want to wash, eat, sleep, go to school, share, take their medicine and get vaccinated.The series was created with the aim to help both parents and children to discover the benefits of washing, eating, etc., in a really fun and educational manner. And the subjects are virtually endless! The books are also bilingual, which means that parents will enjoy the teaching and the interactivity they can gain from reading them with their children. There is something special about these books and one can only imagine how much it could benefit to so many children, both for the message they convey (wash, eat, sleep, etc.) and for the bilingual function of the books. That’s what J.N. Paquet calls “Fun-Learning.”“The books are very suitable both for reading to young children and for older children to use to learn to read in both languages. The repetitive structure is supportive of children learning new words and the illustrations work well alongside the text to help understanding of unfamiliar words. I can easily imagine young children demanding repeat readings and enjoying learning the text by heart as many children do with favourite stories. Children learning to make up and write their own stories might well want to write a personalised version, using the structure as a prop. The stories would work well both in the home and in the classroom.” --Dr Raymonde Sneddon, Research Fellow at the University of East London.“The Book of The Animals – The Beautiful Collection” by J.N. Paquet (RRP £69.99 paperback & £9.99 eBook – all seven episodes included in one book) is available to order now from www.amazon.co.uk and on sale nationally from all leading book retailers from 15th November 2012. The seven books can also be purchased individually priced at RRP £9.99 paperback and £1.99 eBook.The books are currently available in paperback and in eBook format for Kindle (Amazon) and Kobo (WHSmith) and on all other tablets via downloadable Apps.The series’ official website is also full of information about the books and where to find them (Official website: www.TheBookOfTheAnimals.com).

"The T-RRIBLE" is a new children's book for children aged 6-9, written and illustrated by Children's Author J.N. PAQUET (who is also the creator of “The Book of The Animals” series).“The T-RRIBLE” is the 62 page story of a very special boy called Oliver Bluemoon. What is very special about Oliver is the fact that he is bilingual. One day, a strange little monster, “The T-RRIBLE,” knocks at his door and asks him to travel to his planet because only HE can save his people from a gigantic asteroid that is about to destroy everything. Will Oliver succeed? With his new book “The T-RRIBLE,” children’s author J.N. PAQUET, as in his previous children’s books, has created yet another very special story which stimulates the children to engage with their own imagination and have an enjoyable reading experience, both with their parents, teacher or educator and on their own.Its educational aim is to drive the bilingual fun-learning and the reading comprehension through an extraordinary story that shows to the children the importance of speaking other languages.Keen to go even further than ever before in promoting bilingualism, literacy and fun-learning, with “The T-RRIBLE,” J.N. PAQUET has decided to write the story in rhymes, so that it contributes to the children’s linguistic awareness and development. Through rhymes and the use of a specifically elaborated vocabulary, it also teaches the children the benefits of making decisions, developing ideas and thinking on their own.The colourful handmade illustrations, all created and painted by the author himself, open the children to his colourful new world where they will, episode after episode, get to meet some funny little creatures, visit their lands and kingdoms, discover their honey trees secret and where, more than anything else, there is no limit to anyone who is bilingual and loves books.The story promotes team working and friendship, among other moral values, and how these values can help avoid unnecessary conflicts. Although it was written for all children aged 6-9, it has a special appeal to the children who, living in bilingual families, sometimes don’t want to be bilingual anymore. “The T-RRIBLE” shows them that being bilingual is a great asset, it should always be cherished and it will be useful in their future lives.After all, bilingualism is more than speaking two languages. It is also about learning from others: their culture, their life and their differences. Learning from each other is all that is needed to build a better world… right here, on Earth!FINDING THE BOOKThe book is available both in paperback and eBook formats. It can be ordered online from any Amazon website. It is also on sale worldwide from all leading book retailers (Barnes & Noble, Waterstones, WHSmith, Books etc, Angus & Robertson, etc). The eBook format can be ordered on Kindle, Kindle Touch, Kindle Paperwhite and Kindle Fire (via Amazon, Waterstones, etc), on Kobo, Kobo Touch, Kobo Arc, Kobo Glo (WHSmith, Indigo, Angus & Robertson, Livraria Cultura, etc) and on all tablets through Google Play (for iPad, iPhone, Sony, Samsung Galaxy Tabs, etc) or via downloadable eReading Apps for tablets, PC and Mac.Visit the official website for more information: www.T-RRIBLE.comSUPPORTERS“The T-RRIBLE” and J.N.
