  For the big, grownup boys out there, the potty masters in training, You Can't Wear Underpants! is a cry (the big-boy kind!) of toilet triumph and persevering underpants pride. 
  Each turn of the page reveals an infant, animal, toy or other object obviously not suited for big-boy underpants: "No... YOU can't wear underpants!" Each facing page beams with the brilliance of a self-proud, underpant-wearing hero: "I wear big-boy underpants!" Underpants-wearer or not, all readers will be singing and rejoicing in the household's new mantra—all day long! 
  You Can't Wear Underpants! is a perfect companion to the potty training process at all stages, serving up read-aloud, chant-along fun and motivation, inspiring even the most reluctant to join the celebration and excitement of dropping the diapers and embracing the BIG boy underpants and true toilet independence.

  Maya is excited to join Cricket Club at school, but between sports superstars, the big green monster, and her ACTUAL MUM coming to coach the team, she has a lot to handle. And on top of that, Mind thinks they've forgotten something important… like sending a letter to Grandad in India! Can Maya and Mind work it all out in time for their big cricket game?
  
  Funny, and with heaps of heart, this is a delightful story for younger readers accompanied by beautiful and dynamic illustrations.
  
  "An adorable mindfulness story with a splash of funny." Rashmi Sirdeshpande
  
  "A comedy double-act starring a young girl named Maya, and Mind, the physical manifestation of Maya's emotions and mental state. There's a relatable dynamic between the pair, with Mind hindering and helping Maya in equal measure, and the book serves as a great introduction to emotional literacy for younger readers."

  We Are A Circus

  We Are A Circus is the charming, autobiographical tale of a rainbow family, riding around Thessaloniki on a bike. They are poor and living precariously, but they are happy together and have fun in the sun and in the rain (though sometimes they get a bit cold).
  As the book progresses, we follow them through the seasons, playing and cycling and fending off the weather. When their landlord turfs them out of their house, things get more serious as they have to find a new home, fast.
  Nasta has created an exuberant, compassionate story, which is beautifully complemented by Rosie Fencott's energetic artwork.
  **Longlisted for the 2024 Klaus Flugge Illustration Award **
  We are a circus.
  Fortunately not like the ones that train animals.
  (Fortunately means "happiness")
  We are trained by animals! They even make us jump through flaming hoops!
  
  I am kidding. Animals would never do this.
