Overwhelmed by the realities of first-time motherhood and disillusioned with the corporate world, Jane trades in her Manolos for nappies, nipple shields and the foot spread of a yeti: a lifestyle choice her man-eating girlfriend, Rachel, thinks is taking retro chic just one step too far. Unlike the lovely Liz, who'd give anything to be in Jane's pram shoes. Desperate to reconnect with the outside world, Jane finds salvation in her local New Mothers Group, a nonagenarian neighbour, and a royal duo of bloggers dedicated to shoes and behind-the-scenes celebrity gossip. Meanwhile, her unlucky-in-love best friend, Fi, thinks she's found THE one - Marco. Should Jane be concerned that Marco is a handsome, intelligent, Italian shoe designer with a passion for teaching his craft to bored housewives? Or that her work-focussed husband is spending increasingly long hours at the office ... A heart-warming and timeless tale of the transition from career-girl to new mum, The Shoe Princess's Guide to the Galaxy is a sassy and sparkling debut about one modern woman's attempts to put her best foot forward.

Marco loved his Super Stepper Running Shoes when he saw them in the store--but on the first day of school he discovers that everybody was wearing Jupiter Jumpers. He wanted those shoes. He needed those shoes. But his dad said no, and his mom said he should earn some money and save up for them himself. Marco never had a job before! So he grabbed his trusty Field Guide and his best friend Amelia for a quest through the wild world of money--a quest that teaches them some unexpected things. Especially designed for kids 7-8, The Wrong Shoes teaches kids about money, hard work, self-esteem, and the real value of the stuff we own. Generous Kids books teach age-appropriate concepts about money, possessions, generosity, and contentment.

Writing this book was not part of my plans; it was God’s calling. When I was told that I should write another book, I said to myself, it will not be possible because I am not an author. The first book I wrote, “Life Is What You Make of It” was written by my inner self. It was my way of healing my childhood drama. Writing set me free from the pain I went through. These are short stories based on life experiences. It motivates people not to follow majority when they do wrong. It will help you realize that no matter how complicated things may be, you must never give up. Why do you want to learn the hard way? Where did it go wrong? Find out in “if a shoe fits” how to live in a Christian way. Excellent for motivating people that God is alive. A great book for families to guide them through life’s challenges.
