War, Through the Eyes of a Child

By: Violet Apted

Imagine if you will, living through World War II in England. The times were traumatic and terrifying. Now imagine that you are seeing the war Through the Eyes of a Child. Author Violet Apted describes what her life was like as a young girl in Ashford Kent in the years 1939 to 1945. Experience her perception of the events, as well as the restrictions placed on her and the effects this had on her life. British children during the war years experienced a vastly different childhood from today. They witnessed the deaths of family and friends, and faced the reality that their own lives were in constant danger. Yet the naivety and boundless innocence of a child weaves its way throughout this heartwarming story. Violet and her childhood friends were never sure if there would be a tomorrow. You will feel this young girl's fears and share her hopes, as she remembers the horrors and dangers that no child should ever have to know. Perhaps if we take Violet's story to heart we can learn from history's mistakes, and no longer will we know War, Through the Eyes of a Child. Violet Apted's mother used to say she was born with a pen in her hand. Now retired, the author lives in Moreton Bay, Queensland, Australia. War, Through the Eyes of a Child is her fourth book. "This is the book I always planned to write." The fifth is underway.

Jasmin and the Nature Fairies

By: Violet Apted

It's been raining for days! Sitting at her bedroom window watching the rain, six-year-old Jasmin is bored. She even asks the rain to go away! To her great surprise, a purple fairy named Lila appears. Using magic, Lila changes Jasmin down to teeny tiny fairy size with wings. The fairy takes Jasmin on a wondrous adventure to Natureland, where she is introduced to the inhabitants, including Lila's Mother. They show Jasmin just how important rain is in nature. Jasmin works side by side with the fairies restoring colour to the flowers. She understands so much more after she returns home. Jasmin now listens to hear the fairies at work and is more tolerant of rainy days. The little girl never forgets the fairies, just as your children will never forget the magic of Jasmin and the Nature Fairies. Born in Sussex, England, children's author Violet Apted now lives in Queensland, Australia. She loves to tell her grandchildren bedtime stories and is working on her next book.
