‘Here is a copy of the finished cover for ‘Nurse Clementine’. Making a cover is always the last thing to do when making a book, it is never easy to come up with something fresh and distinctive. I hope you like it.’ Simon James.

Wembury Beach was the place where I came up with the story of Sally and the Limpet.

I dedicated the book to Sally and Wembury Beach  in order to remember the day.

So it was a great pleasure to visit the local school at Wembury and share my books with the children, staff and parents. Many of the children had dressed up as characters from my stories, there were wonderful ‘Robomums’, ‘Jakes’ and of course, there were quite a few ‘Sallys’ with their limpet shells.

I would like to thank everyone there for making it a special day.

Here is a photo of Daisy, who’s Mum drew Sally on her daughter’s tee shirt  -rather too well for my liking!

Best wishes,

Simon.
