While Winifred’s husband worked on the family’s farm, she raised the couple’s two young children.While Winifred was in Africa, an old Rhodesian man named M’Dala shared with her a handful of fables that had been passed down by word of mouth in his village. Winifred wrote down these stories and tucked them away for decades.Today, Winifred’s daughter and great-granddaughters share these stories with young and old readers alike, pairing each fable alongside beautiful and original illustrations. The underlying themes of these simple stories tackle such universal topics as love and sacrifice, greed and suspicion, sickness, and questions of our origins and survival. Appealing to children and anyone interested in Africa, this collection is a valuable addition to any family’s home library.

    J.A. Ironside

    language (Blue Stone Press, Oct. 29, 2016)
    'Sometimes it sucks being the youngest sister. I mean your scope for originality is totally limited. And it doesn’t matter what you do, you’ll always be the baby of the family. Don’t get me wrong, my sisters are awesome…but every sidekick eventually wants to be the super hero…’Amy is thrilled when she wins a scholarship to a summer-camp for young scientists in Geneva. Between Emlynn acting distracted, and more than slightly obsessive over her new supernatural duties, and Grace avoiding the vicarage entirely in favour of spending all her holidays at her University in Cornwall, things have been kinda dull lately. Amy is ready for an adventure of her own.On the shore of Lake Geneva, gathered together with other brilliant young minds, Amy is about to find out that she may have bitten off more than she can chew. Almost exactly two hundred years before, another group of young and brilliant people gathered here - in the ‘Year without a Summer’... As Amy is pushed and pulled between two new friends, she starts to wonder just how safe the camp really is. Strange things are happening. An inexplicable illness is striking down both teachers and students, and there are shapes in the night that stalk between the cabins and the lake shore. Now that Amy is finally the heroine in her own mystery, is she strong enough to find the answers alone?

    Unveiled #1.5‘You should always play to your strengths. If you’ve got it, then you use it, that’s my motto.’Grace is faking it. Her sister may have broken the Pattern but Grace often doesn’t feel like her body belongs to her – the memory of being possessed will do that to a girl. Not that Grace is admitting that to anyone because if there’s one thing she hates, it’s appearing weak. Besides, now that she’s in her second semester at University, things are going to get better. Especially since the University is a long way from Yorkshire. Of course there’s Nick – who is haunted by his own demons after carrying the other half of that ancient and twisted love story – but Grace isn’t worried.Everything is going to be FINE.While she may be able to fool everyone else, Grace can’t fool herself. There’s a voice beneath the lulling sound of the tide and Grace’s flat-mate, Laura, is acting weird. Much as Grace wants to avoid any further entanglements with the supernatural, she has a horrible suspicion that Laura needs help … and only Grace knows someone who can.Just as Grace begins to feel that she may be on solid ground again, supernatural forces or not, she is pitched into a life and death struggle to save the one person she’s come to care for more than anything or anyone else. Grace is about to find that the cost of hiding how you feel is a higher price than she is willing to pay…
