Susie Dent, bestselling author, broadcaster and word expert, is on a mission to find 100 words and phrases to bring people together. 
 
There are times when the world feels more divided than ever. But it is important to remember the things that unite rather than divide us.

These are the roots we share.

Every day, you do something incredible, and I bet you barely ever think about it: you speak.

And why are so many words spelt the same but sound different? 
 
In this beautifully illustrated journey through word and rhyme - and even a few jokes - Bill Bryson will teach you how the English language came to be (clue: lots of invasions) and what makes it a rich and beautiful thing (lots of Shakespeare). 
 
Get ready . . . because the story of the English language is an EXTRAORDINARY one.

Roots of Happiness

100 Words for Joy and Hope from Britain’s Most-Loved Word Expert

Dalai Lama

Desmond Tutu

Rafael López

Joy is the warm tingly feeling of the sun tickling your toes in the morning. 
It's the giggly, squiggly feeling when you are doing something silly. 
Even when you wake to the rain and your joy is washed away, it's waiting at the bottom of the puddle. 
 
This is the story of two friends: the late Archbishop Desmond Tutu and His Holiness the Dalai Lama. Once two lonely boys on opposite sides of the world, they grew up to discover the joy in everyday life and spread their joy with the people around them. 
 
Their message for every child is that joy is never far away. Even in hard times, joy never truly disappears. And when we share our joy with others, it grows inside us. 
 
This picture book adaptation of the international bestseller, The Book of Joy, is full of the humour, friendship, and deep affection between two spiritual leaders. In challenging times, it is a timely reminder that joy is all around us, if only we know where to look. 
 
Vibrantly illustrated by award-winning Rafael López, this is the perfect book to reassure and inspire young readers everywhere.

"For all those finding it difficult: the sun will shine on you again and the clouds will go away. Remember that tomorrow will be a good day." 
 
Captain Sir Tom Moore captured the hearts of a nation, as he walked 100 laps of his garden to raise money for the NHS. Captain Sir Tom wished to celebrate many other inspirational stories from this uncertain time, and with his blessing, these one hundred stories make a book of hope for the future. This is a book of gratitude for his inspiration, and a celebration of incredible everyday heroes from across the UK. 
 
These beautifully illustrated true stories of everyday heroes across the nation is introduced by Captain Sir Tom Moore's daughter, Hannah Ingram-Moore. During the pandemic we have found hope in unexpected places, and these one hundred stories of hope - written by Paralympian Danielle Brown MBE - show just how extraordinarily we can work together. We feature well-known stories such as Joe Wicks' family workouts, as well as equally astonishing stories of everyday heroes, such as dancing binmen and fancy-dress postal workers, who brought joy to their neighbourhoods. 
 
These are stories of courage and community, of everyday kindness and perseverance. From the scientists racing to find a vaccine, to frontline workers putting themselves at risk, from clapping together to celebrate keyworkers, to breathing cleaner air, discover one hundred hopeful stories from an uncertain time. With lively and engaging illustrations, these are stories that will help you hope that tomorrow will be a good day.
