Turtle wants an apple, but he must wait for the seed to sprout, the tree to grow, the flower to get pollinated, and the apple to ripen. This simple story about patience and the life cycle of an apple tree is told in simple but expressive hand drawings, and short, to the point, text. It is simple enough for a toddler to follow alone, but also fosters discussion about patience, healthy eating, fruit, and trees between caregivers and child.

A historical fiction fantasy adventure in the tradition of E.Nesbit. 'As the children gazed at the portrait, the boy's lively eyes seemed to glow. then his mouth began to move, stretching into a wide smile that revealed a row of large white teeth. Rose covered her face with her hands, her legs trembling with terror as the surface of the painting began to tremble and the image to run in a waterfall of paint towards the floor.' When George, Rose, Freddie and Mabel receive an invitation to spend Christmas with their elderly Great-Aunt Alice at her ancient home, Hardwood House, it isn't long before ghostly happenings abound. Mysterious messages lead the children to believe that they are are not alone—a suspicion that is proved to be correct when a friendly ghost from centuries before reveals himself. Can the mystery of Hardwood House be solved with their help? The description of the house and local area in the run up to Christmas create a warm nostalgic feel and the use of fictional diary entries that relate to the English Civil War add intrigue and excitement in this magical tale for older children.
