Children's Storybooks

Our unique storybooks and 'It's a Tough Time' magazine can help children explore their feelings by giving them a story they can relate to and identify with.  They can also be used by carers, prisons, probation officers, school libraries, child care professionals, voluntary sector organisations, health visitors and teachers as a catalyst for discussion, helping to raise awareness of the problems prisoners' children can face.

 

'These books provide a great starting point for classroom discussions ... the children were able to empathise with the main characters, which helped them to understand and reflect upon this difficult family situation'.  (one reader's comment on APF's children's story books)
