A Journey Of Surprises

Alan, Brains, Tin Tin, Twiki, K9, Marvin The Paranoid Android and I go for a walk in the forest, but as it gets darker, we don’t notice the mischievous Starlight Glimmer is changing the signs to new directions, and soon, much to her frustration, we discover surprises are the better part of any journey.

The Shape Of Birth

Using one of his latest inventions, Brains allows readers to see the shapes and patterns that formed inside ‘er ladyship’s head as she gave birth to me, getting stronger and stronger with every scream until it gets gentler and turns pink with the sound of a baby crying and Lady Penelope’s swooning of gentle care and comfort.

Alan & Me By The Sea

Alan and my toddler self spend time on the beach, digging in the sand, observing puffins, chasing seagulls, splashing in the water and finally relaxing by having Alan pretend his hands are starfish and jellyfish.

Mummy Is Ill

When Lady Penelope feels quite ill and can’t look after me, Parker takes over parenting duties for my toddler self and has a fun, cheeky way of taking care of me.

Tin Tin - Babysitter

Tin Tin offers to take care of my baby self and babies Bluey, Coco, Snickers and Judo while the mums who attend the mother’s group go out for coffee. Immediately, Tin Tin’s calm aura soothes us babies as she plays with, feeds and changes us…but the best part is when we relax in her arms for cuddles, snuggles and gentle hugs.

Little Rose Baby

Lady Penelope relaxes in a quiet part of the mansion garden, surrounded by beautiful roses. She cradles my toddler self to sleep and, in a hushed voice, whispers a soft, gentle lullaby.

The Great Big Snuggle

During a stayover on Tracy Island, I snuggle in between Lady Penelope and Parker as they fall asleep together in their comfortable bed. Not wanting to be left out, Alan, Brains, Tin Tin and Jeff Tracy all snuggle beside us.

Me Little Blossom

Relaxing in an oriental blossom tree orchard, Lady Penelope and Parker cradle my baby self to sleep, with Parker whispering soft things, including “‘Ush, little blossom.”

Night Of The Living Doctor

The Ninth Doctor has a rough encounter with a vampire which causes him to turn into one himself. Using his new powers, he decides to get revenge on Rose for ruining his life…that is, if he can perfect his new skills.

Pups Make A Promise

No, this isn't a Paw Patrol story, it's a Sarah Jane Adventures story.

Sarah Jane's robotic dog K9 spends a lovely day out with his two nephews, Wilbur (aka K3) and Winston (aka K2) - they steal sausages from the kindly butcher, they play in the dog park and frolic around in a meadow a bit. When K9 realises he might be spending more time with Sarah Jane sometime soon before she moves on, he makes a promise to Wilbur and Winston not to forget him, and later soothes them to sleep as they snuggle by his side.

Mummy's Little Angel

On one day of her bedrest after giving birth to me, Lady Penelope bonds with my newborn self, tucking us both under the soft duvet, whispering that she and Parker will always comfort and cuddle me, as well as the other members of International Rescue - they're like a big family to me: the littlest member of the organisation. She tickles, cuddles and snuggles me, proving how gentle of a mother she is to me.
