Jack is a cheeky and curious boy who lives in sunny Singapore. During a trip to England to visit his grandmother, Jack is drawn to the fireplace, having never seen one before. As he goes to touch the dancing flames, Mama stops him with a firm “No!”âwhich makes Jack very unhappy. “Why do you always say no?” Jack asks. Mama replies like she usually does–unconventionally.

“Very fresh and very personal. A mother sharing secrets with her sonâand with the reader at the same time.”
âJames Lee, author of the bestselling Mr Midnight and Mr Mystery series“I love her series, the illustration is very pretty and attractiveâŠThe story is very meaningful and it teaches children things we donât really touch on.”
âSato, kindergarten teacher, Mindchamps @ Raffles Town Club.âMy twin Aksel insisted on reading the ‘fart book’, as it is now called in my house. Both boys read along and corrected me when I did not get the sounds correctâhilarious! I think it will be read many more times before bedtime.”
âAnna Bervander, founder of Lagom Kids“At the parent-teacher meeting, the teacher told me that the children loved the books. Easy to read on their own and the illustrations are very well done. After reading the children kept asking if they would grow old and what would happen to them.”
âAdeline Tan, mother of a 5-year-old son and illustrator“Jai loved it the first time I read to him. He saw himself (only child, loves trains and TV) and asked me to read Will I Grow Old? the second night because he loves tickles too!… A beautiful series for bonding at bedtime.”
