About The Book

Ever heard the old adage "Sticks and stones may break my bones, but words can never hurt me"? Well, we all know that's not strictly true... This story explores why we should always choose our words carefully!

We all know that sticks and stones can hurt someone, but what about words?

Whether it’s a comment about someone’s hairstyle or their smelly lunch, we’ve all had the experience of accidentally hurting someone’s feelings. It can be a tricky life lesson how to resolve this situation, and realising that changing your choice of words can make all the difference.

Sometimes old sayings are worth questioning.

Beloved children's author and illustrator Heath McKenzie has created this funny and approachable book that will resonate with children of all ages.

Also in the LIFE LESSONS series: You Don't Have to Like It, You Just Have to Eat it; Money Doesn't Grow on Trees; You Get What You Get and You Don't Get Upset; and Try Your Best, Forget the Rest

About The Author

Heath McKenzie

Heath McKenzie lives and works in a very small suburb in Melbourne, Australia and has worked with numerous clients and publishers worldwide. Along with illustration (which he's been doing professionally since 2003) and writing (which he's been getting away with since 2013) he's managed to sneak in the odd bit of design work along the way.

When not drawing he's busily helping raise a little family with his lovely wife, collecting an unnecessary amount of toys and books and occasionally attempting ambitious culinary feats in the kitchen.
He also enjoys possibly a bit too much tea.
