Explora Books will bring three heartfelt children’s titles by Melodin Trammel to the London Book Fair, set for March 10–12, 2026, at Olympia London in Hammersmith. Each story centers on young or growing characters who face confusion, change, or mistakes—and find their way forward with help from others.
Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada, 11th Mar 2026 - In In The Mangroves, readers meet Bobby, a young manatee who suddenly finds himself unsure of his place in his family. The arrival of a new baby shifts the attention around him, and his quiet hurt leads him into open waters where he must rely on his own instincts. The book speaks in clear, direct language and focuses on emotions that many children recognize: jealousy, fear, and the need to be seen. What stands out most is how the story treats these feelings with patience. Bobby is not punished for his choices; he is heard, understood, and welcomed back. The tone encourages conversation between parents and children, especially about how big changes at home can feel to a young mind.
Kora’s Harbor Adventures moves from the gentle currents of the mangroves to the busy rhythms of a harbor. Kora, a new purple tugboat, arrives eager to do her job but unsure of where she fits. The other tugs each carry their own habits, pride, or regrets, and Kora must learn both the work of towing ships and the work of building trust. The book uses simple scenes to show how cooperation grows over time. Instead of focusing on winning, it highlights the value of shared effort and second chances. The message is quiet but clear: a harbor runs best when everyone pulls in the same direction.
In Hidden In The Marsh, the tone shifts to something softer and more romantic. Charles and Eloise, a pair of sandhill cranes, move through their courtship with careful steps and family guidance. The marsh around them is changing, and danger sometimes hides in the reeds, but the story keeps its attention on the slow build of trust between the two birds. The language is more descriptive than in the other books, yet still accessible for young readers. It presents love not as a grand gesture, but as a series of small, steady choices.
Together, these three titles share a gentle outlook on growth, family, and belonging. Rather than dramatic twists, they rely on familiar emotions and small acts of kindness. Visitors to the London Book Fair will find stories that invite quiet reflection and easy conversation long after the last page.
In The Mangroves, Kora’s Harbor Adventures, and Hidden In The Marsh are available on Amazon and other major retailers.
