Playing the piano / music and learning about how language takes on its own song transpired into a passion of the flow of literature, especially how communication develops into being emotionally literate through gesture, sound, movements, behaviours and speech.

This is what Petra Publishing provides to the inclusive world.
These emotional literacy books capture imagination and ignite the fire!
They are a must have for all schools!

The books (or stories as we like to call them) are in line with the PSE ‘JIGSAW’ SOW, and encompass the mandatory RVE skills required.
Petra Publishing Ltd emotional literacy books help to engage pupils with an emotionally literacy text that inspires them at the appropriate level. This enables all learners/stakeholders to create a whole new world of imagination within a safe space for emotionally challenging and thought-provoking discussions.
These discussions/communication support each and everyone of us to try to make sense of this crazy, chaotic, and beautiful world we all live in. These communications are just a small part of it. However, the small part that you discuss with your pupils through each of our books is never small. It will always be the biggest part to someone else that you might never realise.
That is Petra Publishing’s power ... inspiration for emotional literacy and intelligence.
