87 Night Poxies

A new children's book that unpicks the real of nightmares and changes their meanings forever. 

What is a Poxie?

Poxie's are tiny, teeny creatures that live in the very real world of imagination. Every time you see a colour, you are seeing the glow of a Poxie. Every time you have a nightmare, that is a Poxie. Ever heard of Pixies?

 

Recommended age group?

The author J Ashley recommends this book to children between 5 and 8 years old.

 

How is the book structured and how many chapters are there?

87 Night Poxies is split into Three unique books, with each chapter telling the story of each of the unique Poxies. Each Chapter represents a single story and each chapter is structured with pages of a single colour, helping children to separate each of the stories, making the full size novel appear less intimidating to little people, and acting as a great introduction to early reading. Chapters average around 15 pages and include vivid illustrations.

 

Why should I buy these books for my child?

The writer wanted to do more than write yet another children's book. He vehemently supports children getting into reading at an early age, but what makes 87 Night Poxies stand out is three folded.

  1. The books are structured into 87 unique short stories of each of the worlds Poxies, making the books bite size, and leaving children wanting more at a less intimidating pace.
  2. The chapters are colour coded, not only making it easier for children to manage each of the stories but also assisting with dyslexia (A subject extremely close to the writers heart as a dyslexic novelist who found coloured pages helped tremendously as a child.
  3. The books help children who struggle with sleep rationalise the idea of nightmares in a fun but mentally stimulating way.
