Friend, is a children's book that harks back to the child literature of yesteryear. It is richly illustrated and written in a style that will appeal both to youth and adult alike. The story concerns a lonely little 'bristle pig' who finds company and a friend in a scary, dark forest. There is an underlying storyline too, which adults and more mature children will pick up on and understand. Gentle, beautiful to look at and thought provoking - if in places a touch frightening - 'Friend' is a tale that once read, will leave both child and adult in a far more positive and better place.

Using specially commissioned photography, this series introduces the reader to common new and first experiences. The choice of titles reflect the most common types of experiences. The series uses the perspective of another child to tell the 'story' of a particular experience and explores how they feel by the event. At the end, advice will be given to help deal with difficult situations such as feeling jealous because a new baby in the family is getting everyone's attention.
