🦁 A heartwarming story about kindness, courage, and being true to yourself 🦁

🥇 Best seller 🥇

Written by Giles Andreae and illustrated by David Wojtowycz, The Lion Who Wanted to Love has been a favourite with children for decades. Its uplifting message, playful rhymes, and colourful illustrations have made it a beloved picture book in homes, schools, and libraries around the world.

Goodreads ⭐⭐⭐⭐

Leo the lion is different from the other lions. While they enjoy roaring and hunting, Leo dreams of something else entirely—he wants to love. But in a world where lions are expected to behave a certain way, being different isn't always easy. Can Leo stay true to himself and show everyone that kindness can be just as powerful as strength?

Review

With its lively rhyming text and vibrant illustrations, this is a delightful story that immediately captures children's attention. Leo is a lovable character whose gentle nature sets him apart, and readers will cheer him on as he follows his heart instead of trying to fit in with everyone else.

Beneath the playful story lies a powerful message about empathy, acceptance, and the courage to be yourself. The book encourages children to think about kindness as a strength rather than a weakness and reminds us that we don't have to follow expectations if they don't feel right. Warm, uplifting, and full of heart, it's a story that leaves readers feeling hopeful and inspired.

Me and My Mammoth – Paperback-₹110

Goodreads ⭐⭐⭐⭐

A little boy loves to make things, but they never turn out right. So he decides to buy an aeroplane kit: with instructions and everything — what could possibly go wrong? But instead of an aeroplane he ends up with a very big, very hairy, real-life mammoth that can FLY! So begins an amazing, breath-taking adventure to the Arctic and back … and this little boy finally begins to appreciate his talent for making the wrong thing!

Review

This is the kind of book where a simple mistake turns into the most hilarious adventure. A boy tries to build an aeroplane, but what pops out instead? A giant, furry, flying mammoth! The mix-up is pure fun, and the illustrations add to the silliness with their lively, slightly chaotic energy. Every page feels like a surprise, and kids will love the idea of a mammoth who can soar through the sky like a jumbo jet.

Beyond the laughs, the book carries a gentle message: sometimes getting things “wrong” can be the start of something wonderful. It’s a story that sparks imagination and helps children see mistakes in a new light. Instead of feeling bad about not being perfect, kids can celebrate creativity, find joy in surprises, and see how even accidents can lead to something amazing. A playful read-aloud that’s full of giggles and good conversations.

This bedtime book will calm your kids to sleep with a promise of God's peaceful presence all night long. As gentle scenes move through a sleepy farm in Lullaby Prayer, lyrical lines lull little listeners into rest. As the moon smiles, fireflies dance, and darkness unfolds her blanket to drape the landscape in cozy quiet, the sounds of a country evening become a bedtime ballad in this sweet, comforting prayer poem.

Review

Lullaby Prayer opens with a peaceful farm at night—soft moonlight, singing crickets, and glowing fireflies—brought to life by lush illustrations from Jill Howarth. The gentle poem guides children toward sleep while celebrating a parent’s quiet promise of protection.

This bedtime story invites children to notice the beauty in quiet moments, shifting focus from bedtime routine to reflection and calm. The main character isn’t a person but the child listening, guided to feel comfort and connection. Parents can talk about what parts of nature sounded special to them, and how it feels to be loved and safe. The book blends poetic writing with warm farm‑animal visuals, making it ideal for nurturing nighttime focus and feelings of security.

By softly encouraging mindful listening and feelings of care, Lullaby Prayer helps young readers settle down, recognize gentle beauty, and feel reassured at bedtime. It’s a quiet, heartfelt book that supports conversations about gratitude, faith, and nighttime routine, all while soothing the mind before sleep.
