In Proud Patrick Peacock and Other Stories, Sue Ellis presents six funny, modern fables from a `bird's-eye view', each one set in her favourite places in Great Britain: Arran, Coniston, Liverpool, York, Sheffield and London. She hopes to inspire children to overcome life's difficulties and become the best versions of themselves through wise choices, just as the birds do in the book.
Children will find delight in these tales about `quirky birds with attitudes' and parents, grandparents and teachers will love sharing them too. Teachers will be glad to know that this book complements schools' Personal, Social and Health Education (PSHE) and Social and Emotional Aspects of Learning (SEAL) curricula.
