Temper Tabitha

We’ve all seen a bratty “Temper Tabitha” having a meltdown in public.

But what happens when adults behave like children too?

This cleverly written story by rhyme & meter expert Jackie Hosking highlights

one of the great misconceptions about adults; Just because a person has grown up physically,

doesn’t always guarantee that they’ve grown up emotionally and mentally too. Observation of

adult behaviour often proves this to be true.

Author Jackie Hosking is a rising star with seven picture books in production including titles

with publishers like Walker Books & Scholastic.

KEY SELLING POINTS: l Fun and engaging adventure story. l Encourages mindfulness, manners and sharing l Easy to follow rhyming text keeps little ones excited and curious l Teaches children the importance of sharing and being respectful l Bright and colourful illustrations by illustrator Leah Russack
