Reggie Ruby, the Pirate of the Trees, with illustrations by Frans Wesselman once again, is now available!
Consultant Ophthalmologist, Mr Saurabh Jain
Reggie da Silva loves trees, just like his dad, Laurence. Reggie’s favourite tree is the giant oak outside his bedroom window; in the branches of this tree is his boat-treehouse where Reggie da Silva becomes Reggie Ruby, the pirate of the trees!
One day, Reggie notices that instead of seeing one oak tree in his garden, he can see two trees sometimes. His mum and dad decide to take him to see an eye doctor. At the hospital, Reggie meets a girl called Alice and she has an eye problem, too, a squint (which is also called strabismus*). Reggie wants to talk more to Alice, but there isn’t time. In fact, before too long, Reggie will meet Alice again, to discuss a very different problem; can Reggie help to save the urban forest?
An online reading of the opening pages of Reggie’s adventure is available here.
*Consultant Ophthalmologist, Mr Saurabh Jain, advised on the medical elements related to this eye condition and provided generous support to the production of this book. He is the author of Simplifying Strabismus: A Practical Approach to Diagnosis and Management
Costa is a Greek cat who lives very happily in the pretty resort of Nikatsa on the island of Corfu. It’s a quiet little cove, far from the noise and bustle of the city.

Alone and homeless, how will he manage?
Costa the Cat in Corfu is also available on various online outlets. Frans Wesselman, a highly commended Dutch artist/illustrator and glass artist, has created some wonderful illustrations. You can see more of his creations at his site .
