Description

Janet the Gannet: A Rhyming Tale of Greedy Bites, Tricky Flights, and Feeling Just Right is a heartwarming, rhyming picture book that teaches children about self-control, emotional resilience, and the joy of balance—all through the adventures of a cheeky seabird with an enormous appetite.

Set on the scenic Isle of Thanet, young Janet eats and eats until she can no longer fly, dive, or even waddle without effort. As her world becomes smaller and other birds start to laugh, Janet must face the consequences of her choices and find her own way back to strength and self-confidence.

Written in playful verse and beautifully illustrated in soft watercolors by Emmy, this uplifting story by Lionel is perfect for parents, teachers, and caregivers looking for:

Engaging bedtime stories for ages 3–7
Picture books about healthy habits and moderation
Social-emotional learning stories with animals
Rhyming children’s books with a strong message
Nature-themed tales with coastal charm

Janet the Gannet is not just a fun read—it’s a meaningful journey that helps children explore feelings, growth, and the importance of finding what feels “just right.”
