Inspiring young children to adopt positive character traits through little achievable steps

Join Mei as she finds out about manners and takes little steps towards having great manners at home, at school - or anywhere!

The Little Steps series explores each positive character trait through everyday scenarios. Each book centres around one child character as they find out how their actions and the choices they make affect themselves and others. 'Little steps' panels recap the moral message of the text and summarise the key lesson and a 'big step' panel at the end of each section shows positive outcomes of developing emotional literacy. Relevant feelings and emotions are highlighted in the text.

Perfect for readers aged 5 and up.

Kay Barnham was born in Barrow-in-Furness, grew up in Carlisle, went to college in Brighton, and lived in Hove for a while, before sailing for Kinsale, Co Cork, popping back to Hove and then moving to the New Forest with her husband and daughter. And never at any point has she lived more than ten miles from the sea. She began working in children's publishing in 1992. She was an editor first of all, working on illustrated non-fiction and learning fun facts like how long it would take to walk to the moon - nine years - and how to spell palaeontology. Next, she commissioned fiction titles, editing picture books, storybooks and novels. And then she got the chance to write her own books, which she thinks is quite the best job ever. Except possibly being a chocolatier. She writes non-fiction as Kay Barnham. Her specialist subjects include ice-skating, Isambard Kingdom Brunel, lightning, fairies, Roald Dahl, Sir Isaac Newton, Christmas, dolphins, Florence Nightingale and very bad cracker jokes. And chocolate. She also writes fiction as Kay Woodward, including the Skate School series for Usborne and the novels Jane Airhead and Wuthering Hearts for Andersen Press. Altogether, she's written about a hundred books. Her favourite colour is navy blue. Her favourite chocolate is 85% cocoa solids.
