This set comprises 8 entertaining and engaging books which are written with a target sound at their core - 1 key sound per book. The books expose the child to their target sound (a sound which they are having difficulty saying and may be substituting with a different sound) through natural rhythm and good quality rhyme.
The books will enable children to join in with repeated phrases which include their target sound and also to hear their target sound repeated and spoken accurately by an adult. A key feature of the books in this series is that they follow the adventures of two children who are transported by their imaginations to exciting settings in which they encounter a challenge which they help to solve. Included in the set are Mindy and Mo's Groovy Gog, Mindy and Mo's Dino Duo, Mindy and Mo's Crazy Carpet, Mindy and Mo's Pirate Problem, Mindy and Mo's Super Sledge, Mindy and Mo's Troll Trouble, Mindy and Mo's Bear Bother and Mindy and Mo's Fab Flight.
These books, whilst focusing on promoting target speech sounds, will also explore growth mindset, empathy, kindness and resilience. They are the perfect addition to any classroom, SLT toolkit, or bedroom bookcase.

Emily Kempster is an English teacher with 20 years' experience working in Gloucestershire secondary schools. Her passion for books inspired her to write from a young age, anything from short plays to ghost stories. More recently, in an attempt to entertain her young family and support her youngest daughter's difficulties with some speech sounds, she has focused on writing narrative poems. She hopes that the Mindy and Mo adventures will capture the imagination of young readers as well as support their speech sound development.

Interested in all things creative from an early age, she studied Art and Graphic Design at college before heading into a successful management career in the voluntary sector.

Lucy is also involved in charity work, helping families who have children with heart conditions, but her most rewarding role to date is that of mum to two young children, one of whom had significant speech difficulties up to the age of 5. She now juggles time between bringing up her family, running her business, helping others and eating too much chocolate.
