…and don't just take our word for it…

“Now I know there were Trepets at the bottom of my garden when I was young! It’s great to see that they are still hard at work and play looking after the countryside!” ~ Professor David Bellamy, Former President of the Wildlife Trusts, Conservationist and TV Personality

"These beautiful storybooks take children, and adults, into the enchanting world of the Trepets - tiny magical folk who are 5cm tall and can fly when their noses glow... Each book has six of seven short stories to read which help children to learn about the importance of nature and the environment...We say...a wonderful fantasyland children will love." ~ Creative Steps Magazine, Editor, Dawn Frostick-Hopley

“It certainly is a fun book and one I’m sure will prove to be extremely popular. I really applaud your and the author's attitude in introducing nature to a young audience. The book certainly got the thumbs up from my son - he loved it! Good luck and I hope you sell truckloads.” ~ Jhal Baker, Natural History Book Store, Purchasing Manager

“C.A.Chance - the new J.K.Rowling? Move over Harry Potter and author J.K.Rowling - the Trepets are coming!” ~ Fenland Citizen

“This is a book to share with the whole family...The magical stories have proved so popular.” ~ Cambridgeshire Times

“A delightful book! Go buy it!” ~ The Smallholder

“I love the idea that it will encourage [children] to learn about the environment.” ~ Fiona Phillips, GMTV

“I enjoyed the first story, especially the thought of Gertie Squirrel's hoop earrings, dried peas beads and designer cobweb belt. I like the way the words are in set in ovals like those old-fashioned family albums. And your illustrations have a charming delicacy and tenderness that add to the friendly feel. “ ~ John Agard, Poet

“Thought you might like to know that the youngest grandson (7) was delighted with the stories. It was quite a sensation reading stories again at bedtime, his not mine, so pass it on, they were great.” ~ Brian Reynolds, of Reywood Communications

“It would be lovely to have you down doing your story-telling and arts again as you were such a hit over the weekend. Thanks for all your hard work.”  ~ Sarah Graves, Marketing Coordinator, Welney Wetlands Centre, Cambridgeshire

 There are three books in the children's Trepets fantasy book series. We hope you enjoy the magical stories, written by children's author C.A.Chance. In the stories are tales of fairies, elves, flying carpets, magic, leprechauns and lots of cute animals and wildlife! And of course don't forget that the magical Trepets have been recycling for hundreds of years, so there make things out of things that they find.
