Animal magic! www.hubbleandhattie.com The Hubble and Hattie imprint was launched in late 2009, with the publication of its first book, and is named in memory of two very special Westies owned by Veloce's proprietors. Since then, many more books have been added to the list; all with the same underlying objective: to be of real benefit to the species they cover, whilst also promoting compassion, understanding and respect between all animals (including human ones!). All Hubble and Hattie books have high quality content, presentation and production, and – because of their competitive pricing – also offer terrific value for money. Coming soon: Office Dogs: The Manual – the definitive guide on how to integrate your dog into office life; The Complete Book of Cat & Dog Health – a definitive and comprehensive guide to 21st century health care for cats and dogs – written by a veterinarian, and the first of its kind, the ground-breaking Wildlife photography from the edge: powerful words from the heart and striking wildlife images – photography for total wellbeing.

“I learned a lot from this book ... [it] is well worth reading” – Trevor Turner BVetMed, MRCVS, FRSH, MCIArb
Just how successful is the bond between man and dog is affected by a dog's ability to ‘read’ us and our moods, so the more we understand about our own behaviour, the better we can influence our dog's responses. The anxieties of an owner can be reflected in their dog's behaviour, and the same is true of a calm, even-tempered owner. Man's best friend needs us to be our own best friend. This ground breaking book – with specially-commissioned images – will show you how.

Hubble & Hattie Hubble & Hattie Worzel says hello! Will you be my friend? is our very first Kids! book, and was published in September 2017. Author Catherine Pickles is Mum to Worzel Wooface, the enormous Lurcher with ‘issues,’ who has become a bit of a literary legend (see his books on pages 31-33). Catherine has designed the books in this new series to help children and dogs have a great time together throughout their lives, and other titles will cover everyday events such as mealtimes, going on holiday, visits to the vet, etc. Perfectly illustrating the stories, Chantal Bourgonje’s beautiful watercolour images have been created exclusively for each rhyme. The second book in the series – Worzel goes for a walk! Will you come too? – is now available too! (see page 44).
Children and dogs can be the best of friends, and good for each other in so many ways. Sadly, though, dogs are often misunderstood by both adults and children, and their behaviour misread. Worzel Says Hello! is the first in a new series of delightful educational and fabulously illustrated guides to understanding how dogs think, feel and behave, so that all children can have a wonderful relationship with the dogs in their lives, and all dogs can feel happy, safe, and loved. The information presented in this book is endorsed by dog trainers, parents and teachers alike, and is an essential addition to every classroom, library, and child’s bookshelf.

Where will Little House find a home?
A cheeky and plucky little house doesn’t have a place to live. So he packs his bag, and he and his best friend, Bear, set off into the big wide world to find themselves their ‘forever home.’ Along the way they encounter lots of interesting characters: some nice, some sad, and some very rude indeed! Feeling lost and alone, the Little House doesn’t give up. And just when we think that he and Bear will never find somewhere to belong, something surprising turns up. The story of the Little House is told in clever, engaging and amusing rhyme. The illustrations are beautifully detailed and well observed, and include caricatures of high-rise flats, country mansions, floaty boats, and a very busy, whizzy caravan. Children and adults alike will love The Little House that didn’t have a home.

How will the wildebeest cross the crocodile-infested river ...?
The Wandering Wildebeest tells the story of the animals’ massive annual migration across the African plains in search of food and water. In the blistering heat, our heroes keep on walking over the parched, dusty ground in their quest to find lush grassland to graze upon. Having faced starvation, exhaustion and dehydration, they finally see a happy, grazing herd of buffalo in the distance! But in order to reach the grassland, the wildebeest have one more dangerous challenge ahead – to cross the deep, wide river filled with crocodiles! Written in humorous rhyme and including off-the-wall characters and scenarios, Martin Coleman's funny, silly story, accompanied by Tim Slater’s stunning and hilarious illustrations will both educate and entertain children of all ages, (and we think the grown-ups will enjoy it, too!)
