Today is #EmpathyDay! Earlier this year we were delighted that Latvian children's poetry collection THE NOISY CLASSROOM was chosen for @EmpathyLabUK's #ReadForEmpathy booklist. Illustrator Vivianna Maria Staņislavska created this special image for today.
"Goose Fair Night is a juicy and vibrant collection of poems in which @kathy_pimlott’s insightful observations on family, age, work and life in the Midlands are brought to us wrapped in flavours, feelings and scents." Thank you @Poetry_Jar for this review: https://t.co/XyVv0XvdFa
In "The Dog Who Found Sorrow", our hero Dog manages to lift the spirits of the Sorrows. The book, which up to this point has been entirely grey, takes on shades of pink in @elinabraslina's illustrations, as the depression lifts at last. https://t.co/6vKyoti7Lm @LV_Literature

What's changed in the Emma Press in the last year? Quite a lot! I've gone from having a team of 5 to it being just me again, but the main thing to change has been my approach to self-care. Read more in my recent subscribers' newsletter: https://t.co/YQA7kwnA3y #EmmaPress2019
