"I don't mean to gloat, and I don't mean to boast,
But the king trusted me with his 'secret post."'
He said, "Guard this message, whatever the cost.
It'll be pigeon for tea if this message is lost!''

Back in the day pigeons delivered the post. But they had to beware of spies! When the king's prized messenger pigeon gossips, his top secret message is overheard. Find out what happens when the news is discovered by Blackbeard, a fierce pirate captain.

This entertaining tale of adventure and friendship teaches an important life lesson about the consequences of our actions and the power of making good decisions. "Loose Lips Sink Ships" is uplifting, humorous and full of surprises and is sure to be a bedtime favourite and a first choice for reading out loud.

About the Author

Being a mother of three children Hilary Lawrence understands what an important part strong core values and beliefs have in our children's development. In todays world having a strong north is essential!

Lessons which children learn from loved ones and from their education enrich, teach and give direction not only in the early years of development, but all through life.

Lawrence's books are based on famous proverbs which have been part of British culture for hundreds of years. Too many times in history lessons similar to these have been lost and not successfully passed through the generations. Her books remind us of these sayings and bring them to life in beautifully illustrated rhyming stories which appeal to young children. In doing so she hopes to protect them for generations to come.
