Little Things

A new book from international bestseller Emma Dodd, with themes of gratitude and kindness.

It's the little things that matter,
it's the little things that count,
it's not the biggest or the best
or the largest amount.

A giant panda and its adorable cub discover the importance of helping others. The perfect gift for young and old, this warm story with beautiful illustrations celebrates small acts of kindness and that it's often the smallest things that bring joy and contentment.

Emma Dodd studied Graphic Design and Illustration at Central Saint Martin's School of Art in London and has been lucky enough to work as an illustrator ever since. She has illustrated more than 200 books for children and now writes and illustrates her own books, as well as collaborating with other authors. One of her favourite and most successful collaborations is with the poet Giles Andreae. Their book I Love My Mummy won the Bookstart Early Years Award in 2010.

Emma lives in Surrey with her family and their two Jack Russell terriers, Buzz and Twiglet. Her two children and her love of nature and the outdoors are her main sources of inspiration. She loves walking, surfing and rowing; the colder, wetter and more miserable the conditions are, the more she likes it!
