Description

A celebration of incredible key-workers by Dr Ranj, presenter of CBeebies series Get Well Soon, resident doctor on ITV's This Morning and front line NHS paediatrician.

Lily knows exactly what she wants to be when she grows up: a superhero! But she's not interested in being a silly superhero. She doesn't want to wear her pants outside her trousers! Lily wants to be a REAL superhero: the kind who helps people and makes the world a better place.

Join Lily as she meets the extraordinary superheroes all around us, from doctors, teachers and air ambulance paramedics to scientists, recycling truck drivers and carers. Discover the amazing work these real-life heroes do using their incredible superpowers of kindness, care and love.

This uplifting picture book celebrates key-workers, and shows little readers that we all have the potential within us to be superheroes.

Liam Darcy is a British illustrator from London with a BA Hons degree in graphic design from Ravensbourne College of Design and Communication. He finds inspiration mainly from animals, nature and human interactions. Most of his work is created digitally but he occasionally experiments with paints and ink to encourage artistic development. Liam has always enjoyed creative projects and finds illustration to be the perfect work and hobby combination. He also has strong interests in fitness and writing. Dr. Ranj Singh is a NHS paediatrician and BAFTA-award-winning TV presenter. He co-created the hit CBeebies' show Get Well Soon, and has presented numerous other series including ITV's prime-time Dr. Ranj: On Call, Save Money Lose Weight and Save Money: Good Health, and Extreme Food Phobics for the W Channel. He's also a contributor for ITV This Morning and Tonight, as well as BBC1's Morning Live, The One Show, and Inside Out. Off-air, his work can be found in numerous magazines and on websites where he gives expert opinion and advice on a range of physical and mental health matters. His guide to puberty for boys, How to Grow Up (and Feel Amazing!), was a Sunday Times bestseller.

The shipping was just superior

The shipping was just superior; not even one of the books was in contact with the shipping box -anywhere-, not even a corner or the bottom, so all the books arrived in perfect condition. The international shipping took around 2 weeks, so pretty great too.

Found a hard to get book…

Finding a hard to get book on Booksplease and with it not being an over inflated price was great. Ordering was really easy with updates on despatch. The book was packaged well and in great condition. I will certainly use them again.
