'Noah is visiting Grandma and Grandpa in the city and he’s in for a big surprise – he meets Gus, Grandpa’s new dog. Grandpa cannot see well, and Gus is his guide dog. Now, instead of being at home a lot, Grandpa is out nearly every day! Noah follows along with Grandma and sees Grandpa ride on a bus, find road crossings and seats, and avoid obstacles, all by using teamwork. Gus even avoids an accident by refusing to move because he can see something that Grandpa cannot!

'Written in a sensitive and friendly style and beautifully illustrated, Gus the guide dog is a lovely educational story about the teamwork and close bond between a man with low vision and his guide dog.' (Publication summary)

Young people may feel afraid or ashamed and may even believe they are in some way responsible or helpless to stop it.

'We Can Deal with Bullying! debunks these beliefs. The gentle, conversational and supportive text encourages young people to ask for help, maintain self-esteem, develop resilience, manage their reactions and stand united with others against bullying.

'Showing different perspectives, We Can Deal with Bullying! exposes bullying for what it really is - all about the bully. Young people can learn to turn the black back onto the bully and hold their heads high, reassured that whatever the outcome there is life after bullying.

'Suitable for any age We Can Deal with Bullying! is an important read for all young people.'  (Publication summary)
