After breakfast at Aunt Miranda’s, Ellie always feeds the birds, but today squirrels come and steal the food. Ellie shoos them off, but the squirrels explain that they’re hungry too, making her stop and think. Throughout the day that follows – in the park, at the shops - Ellie is halted in her tracks again and again when other creatures point out their needs and each time she decides it’s best to share what she’s got. This is a book that will prompt important questions and discussions and is a great way to talk to children about the importance of sharing and of thinking about others.

Ellie loves sleepovers with Aunt Miranda, who is the best cook in the world! They love to feed the cute birds and the fluffy ducklings, but other less appealing creatures keep appearing because they're hungry too! Gradually Ellie learns to look out for the creatures who are usually ignored but are just as needy and worthy of care.

A lovely book for adults and children to read together and to help children think about caring for creation and those less fortunate than themselves.

Sylvia Green has been writing for as long as she can remember. She wrote poems and stories at school, and even started her own newspaper – although it only had two issues! After having short stories for children published in various magazines and newspapers, she went on to start writing books and is now the author of a popular series of Christmas animal stories including The Best Christmas Present Ever (Second edition 2014), The Christmas Wish (2004) and The Christmas Pony (2001), all published by Scholastic.

Sylvia lives in Walton-upon-Thames, Surrey with her family and two cats, Jet and Jack. A true animal lover, she has also adopted a donkey called Timothy at the Donkey Sanctuary in Devon, and a tiger at Chessington Zoo.
