Molly Potter started out as a scientist. However, she soon realised that chemistry did not have abundant opportunities for working with people and they were what really interested her - so she jumped ship and trained as a primary school teacher. She has subsequently worked with children and in education in a variety of guises for a long time.
The first books Molly had published were in creative thinking, problem-solving and personal, social and health education (PSHE) and aimed at teachers. Later, she moved on to write picture books that help young children with tricky emotions and situations. Her honest, open, down-to-earth approach leaves children informed and reassured.
Molly's website is mollypotter.com and it has a blog with ideas and free resources etc...https://www.mollypotter.com/blog

Hannah Peckham is an Award-winning Author, counsellor and Mum living in Sussex. Conker the chameleon, published February 2021 started her journey as an independent publisher of little Bodhi Books. Conker has won the hearts of teachers and primary caregivers for its focus on talking about feelings to develop good mental health. It has become a Teachers Pick on Amazon, Good Toy Guide recommended and also won Bronze at the Junior Design Awards 2021. The key message of Climb, published November 2021, is to help children celebrate their own and others differences. The story has a subtle nod to her experience of growing up as a classic dyslexic diagnosed at the age of 5. Hannah wants to offer a little more than just a book, by taking full advantage of the multi-sensory learning opportunityâs books have to offer. The activities at the back of both books hope to open up conversations with children and primary caregivers in a safe environment to start laying the important foundations of self-regulation, good mental health and an understanding of each childs own unique world they live in. Hannahs next book (and follow up to Conker the chameleon) is due out later this year (2022) and she will soon be visiting schools keep up to date with her books @littlebodhibooks or if you want to see all the messy background reality of a working mum juggling a small business and small person head to @h.j.peckhamwww.littlebodhibooks.co.uk or contact her [email protected]
