Saving Piku

James Sellick is an award-winning children’s author and creative director from London. His debut story, There’s a Rang-tan in my Bedroom, brought the horrible truth about palm oil to the surface. His follow-up story, There’s a Jag-wah in my Kitchen, exposed the dangerous world of industrial meat. Now, as we finally emerge from the pandemic, James wants to help children better understand the complexities of their emotions, whilst keeping them entertained at the same time. He hopes his new ‘Dealing with Feeling’ series with publisher New Frontier will do exactly that, starting with managing anger, coping with loss and sticking together in the face of fear.
