This is a very sweet picture book, beautifully illustrated in watercolours, which really shows our kids what kindness looks like and how incredibly valuable a safe circle of community is in raising happy, confident and resilient kids. Well done Debbie Brooker!
It truly is such a lovely story Debbie. About daily issues our babes face. school troubles, having courage and unexpected friendship. We love it.
A charming book on the gentle wonder and power of supportive relationships.
A powerful read. Wonderful illustrations complement the text delightfully, evoking for all of us, fond memories of our own childhood, our own ‘Mrs Jones’ experiences, and the gentle nurturing we too received.
Three cheers for Mrs Jones!
‘Flowers for Penny’ is a delightful children’s story book that shares how simple acts of kindness and neighbourly connections can build confidence in children; reduce anxiety and develop life habits of caring about others. The story is very real and is beautifully illustrated.
Congratulations local author and wonderful lady Debbie Brooker on this delightful book about community and neighbourhood that brought (good)tears to my eyes!
This is the world I grew up in and wish for every child who passes through my doors.
