Theodore the Unfortunate Bear
2019
Theodore was an unfortunate bear. Exquisite, knowledgeable, well-mannered and immaculately dressed (with his impressive red bow tie), he was what you would call a ‘gentle-bear’. For a teddy bear of his distinguished pedigree, one would expect nothing but the best of what life has to offer. But luck should have it that he would end up in the worst possible place on earth- the Chow family! The most terrible kind of family imaginable, his days were miserable.... to say the least. Every day he wished that the horrible family he's living with would disappear from his life. One day, the family went out for what seemed like a normal outing... But they never came back... Theodore's wish had come true....

Theodore and The Cat with the Missing Sock
2021
Who is this strange Little Black Cat? He has a coat of sleek beautiful fur, bright charming eyes, and… three white socks. Annabelle and Theodore have never seen this little kitty before in the neighbourhood, and he sure looks rather unusual, with only three white socks. What’s wrong with that? You may ask. Nothing really, but not when all the other pets have a complete set of four. That really makes this poor little kitty stand out, or shall I say... imperfect. No wonder he is a homeless cat! Annabelle is determined to help her new feline friend. Fortunately, Mum has kept Annabelle’s things from her baby days in an old cookie tin, inside which there is a little white sock—perfect for the Little Black Cat. Just when all seem well and good, disaster strikes. A misguided pelican breaks in at just the right time and takes off with the old cookie tin, leaving behind a scene of chaos and destruction. Will Annabelle, Theodore and the Little Black Cat get their little white sock back? Or will they be caught up in yet another adventure of a lifetime? Find out in this fun-filled, captivating story that promises to bring joy and laughter to the whole family, not forgetting the book’s important life lessons about ‘embracing imperfection’ and ‘seeking to understand others’. Or simply be mesmerized by the author’s breathtaking illustrations!
