You girls are all so wonderful, thankyou for your suggestions and advice.

I have started writing.

I have ideas for two boks, both completely different to each other.

Without giving to much away, one book is about a mother and their child. I am aiming this to be a feel good bedtime book between mother and baby/small child. (Sort of the same market that the book "Guess how much I love you" is aimed at). So what I am wondering is, do you think it best to use animals as characters or people? If animals I am open to suggestions.

Thanks for all your help. It is great to run things by people and get other great opinions
