Princess Poppy by Janey Lo Jones
There's a new girl in Honeypot Hill and she and Poppy instantly become friends. They're getting on really well - Abigail's so talented, she plays the piano and the violin - until Poppy starts showing off...Will Poppy be brave enough to admit to Abigail that she got a bit carried away, and will she realize that everyone is good at different things and that there's no need to be jealous of your friends, so that she can be a true princess?
"A lovely series of picture books.. Based on reality rather than a fantasy kingdom which make her much easier to relate to. The adorable illustrations, coupled with innocent stories, makes these books ideal for reading aloud ... Sure to become real favourites" South Wales Argus "With soft pink pictures and a secret letter for the reader, these suit dainty little ladies down to the ground. The simple language and easy pace make them a good first read" Junior
Janey was born in Edinburgh and grew up by the seaside just outside the city. Janey published the first two Princess Poppy books herself (with her own illustrations) and the books were so popular that Random House Children's Books soon bought the series and re-packaged the books. The series is now going from strength to strength, including picture books, novels for young readers, activity books and sumptuous gift books. Veronica gained a BA in Graphic Design at Bradford and Liverpool Polytechnic which led her into the world of greetings card design and then book illustration. Veronica says that her favourite thing about illustrating picture books is inventing characters and bringing them to life through her illustrations. Veronica lives and works in the small market town of Otley in West Yorkshire, and in her spare time she enjoys long-distance cycling in the Yorkshire Dales with her partner.
