Two tempting treats for little tigers, from Little Tiger Press

We're celebrating the release of two brilliant little books from Little Tiger Press, and the first is a real treat for mighty girl fans who love seeing sisters "doin' it for themselves".

"The Girls" by Lauren Ace and Jenny Lovlie (Ace and Lovlie - what a fab pair of names and what a team!) introduces Four little girls who first meet as tiny toddlers, playing under an apple tree.

As the tree grows tall and begins to bear fruit, the girls form a bond that grows as they share secrets, dreams, worries and schemes.

It's a wonderfully observed and beautifully illustrated tale that charts the girls' lives through ups and downs and laughter and tears.


Find out how their friendship flourishes as the years pass by and the girls become women.

Wonderfully written with some really fab illustrations, this is a real 'feelgood' picture book that little girls will absolutely adore.

"The Girls" by Lauren Ace and Jenny Lovlie is out now, published by Little Tiger Press. 

Next up is "The Kiss" - a mite late for Valentine's Day but a thoroughly original tale from Linda Sunderland and Jessica Courtney-Tickle.

The story begins as young Ewyn blows his beloved Grandma a kiss that brings smiles, laughter and dancing! 

But someone jealously covets that kiss and a rich man thinks that he can use his power, money and influence to steal the kiss, and keep it all to himself. He will stop at nothing to get it, but needs to learn the most valuable lesson of all - some things just can't be bought!

Wonderful lyrical storytelling coupled with sumptuous luxurious colourful painted illustrations, this is a really gorgeous book with a simple but powerfull message at its heart. 

"The Kiss" by Linda Sunderland and Jessica Courtney-Tickle is out now, published by Little Tiger Press.
