Children's Fiction
Tania Abbey Adventures
Great for children aged 6-10, the Tania Abbey Adventures novels follow 10 year old Tania and her friends as they live out her crazy ideas and grow in faith.
Each adventure explores themes of friendship, family and responding practically to the needs of the world.
Each book is a great stand alone adventure and doesn't require other titles to make sense. However, if readers are keen to follow the characters' development more closely a suggested reading order is Back Leg, Water or goo, More than a Mouse and Camp Max.
