Ollie the octopus has a lot of feelings and he struggles to understand them. One especially busy, emotional day, Ollie becomes overwhelmed by all of his feelings. But with the help of his good friend, Stella the starfish, Ollie is reassured and able to feel that he is ok, and that it is fine to have so many feelings. This endearing board book explores the range of emotions we all can feel and opens up the potential for a conversation with a caring adult where kids can discover their feelings are natural and normal, and that others feel the same way they do. Stella and Ollie give kids words for their emotions, and power over their feelings. With their help, kids will realize it's okay to not feel fine all of the time, and that it's okay to talk about it. A visually fun detail included is how Ollie changes his color with his changing emotions to emphasize and make it easy for even the very youngest readers to see Ollie's feelings. Ollie Feels Fine helps parents support their child's emotional intelligence.

It takes more than a doctor to mend a broken heart. Ollie Warne is fresh out of nursing school and working his dream job as a pediatric cardiology nurse at St. Cross Children's Hospital. Wanting to start the year fresh from personal heartache and his track record of falling for the wrong man, Ollie's New Year's resolution is to rid himself of emotional baggage and live a life of carefree liaisons. But before the resolution can even begin, Ollie is called to care for eight-year-old Daisy Monroe, who's struggling after heart surgery. Her father, Jacob Monroe, never leaves her side, apart from the times her mother comes to visit. The tempestuous and somewhat estranged relationship of her parents is cause for concern enough, but the father's brooding nature has Ollie investing far more time than usual in his Room One patient. Striking up a friendship of sneaking takeaways into the ward, card playing until dawn and the occasional breaking up of domestic fights, Ollie finds himself drawn to Jacob and becomes a friendly ear for the man who's harboring more guilt and past demons than even Ollie, which is saying something. The growing attraction makes it hard for Ollie to keep his distance, though he has to—not only do the ethics of his profession demand it, but Ollie is still somewhat involved with another man. One who has a huge stake in Ollie's life, both personal and professional. Ollie is risking more than just his job by getting involved with a patient's father—much more even than the success of his New Year's resolution, something that was supposed to ensure that, this time, he won't feel a thing.

You know that office bromance: two of a kind, always taking their lunch together, always wearing the same sly grin. Only ever a hair away from a cold joke about how spreadsheets are a living hell; about taking a bullet if it means going home early on Friday. Sometimes in these fantasies, they’re heroes being hauled out on a stretcher. Sometimes they’re the ones pulling the trigger. Now, say these guys discover a loophole that makes some days less real than others—less permanent—and start to act out their violent fantasies without fear of reprisal. Why shouldn’t they? Tomorrow, everything will go back to normal, with no one the wiser but them. They’ll always remember what it felt like to act on their basest impulses. They’ll know how it could feel to do it again. Maybe you don’t know these guys. Maybe you don’t want to. Soft Targets is a reality-bending novella about malignant malaise; the surrender to violence; and the addictive appeal of tragedy as entertainment. Contains graphic depictions of gun violence in the workplace; caution recommended.
