New Characters were created by Tas and Leon.
my nephews illustrated two characters and wanted to see them drawn up properly their imaginations thought up Finley McFly and Douglas Fredrick aka Bob
I hope they meet their expectations as their imaginations exceeded my expectations! I think that both characters could be developed into something spectacular. They will be in The Nose Family children’s book series I hope that their names be promoted and spread to all illustrators and animators
Below they are both professionally illustrated and animated – moving around just a little. I will add them to my next book so keep an eye out and see if you can spot them.
So I would like to introduce Finley Mcfly and Bob AKA Douglas Fredrick.
Illustrated by Tas Andrea
illustrated by Leon Andrea
These two characters started as ideas thought up by my awesome nephews, sketches then beneath is the process of illustration that time to get just right.
Both characters designed and created
Now we need their back story to give them depth, Ideas let me know.
Douglas Fredrick.
From the imagination of Leon Andrea.
Finley Mcfly
From the imagination of Tas Andrea
Your imagination can create magic and that magic can inspire people to create something new and unique. Anything is possible with our thoughts and dreams so keep dreaming and using your imagination.

Equal lives
The Nose Family support the Equal Lives organisation in a big way as they do so much to help people who live with life-changing conditions.
The whole world should teach children from a young age that differently-abled people can function and contribute to society in a big way! So the next generation all understand that differently-abled people are normal.
Please click on the link above to understand more about Equal Lives and the amaizing things they are doing.
Please do something amaizing today to support differently-abled people. ❤️
To enlighten and promote diversity in children’s literature provides an
opportunity to break down stereotypes and challenge preconceived
notions about what is considered “normal.” By featuring characters
with disabilities, it sends a powerful message that everyone,
regardless of their physical or cognitive differences, has a valuable
and meaningful story to tell. As a disabled author, I strive to
contribute to this narrative by weaving tales that not only entertain

Good luck in finding the little yellow bird which is getting more tricky to find as promised. But it’s still there, just hiding 🧐
This part of The Nose Family series weaves a very important moral lesson that children need to grasp at a young age.
And for those who have a keen eye there on the back of the book is a wonderful spot the difference for the ones following the series.

The Nose Family Snow Day is here!
Finally the 3rd in the series is here!
We have amaizing story that unfolds, the magical golden pen is found.
But this time by someone who already has everything they could possibly need.
The magical golden pen gets used, and things start with fun and games but start to go terribly wrong. No Nose could have predicted the amaizing gift of Snow especially in the summer, there are a few moral lessons in this picture book can you find them?
This time KIKI is hiding a little better, and on some pages he is hard to find.
But he’s there just look a little harder. I promise you’ll find him. ❤️
Also, keep your focus on the illustrations because this time the author got stuck in and tried to illustrate, I have added two secret messages in the illustrations can you find them?
Trying to entertain and explore the possibilities of the young mind.
And a wonderful activity is on the back cover, for all who adore a good spot the difference. Book two’s back cover and this one is an incredible spot for the difference! For those with intuitive minds❗

More to organising.
The Nose Family where lucky to meet Kathryn Lord at the 2023 Clean and Tidy show.
❤️❤️ https://www.moretoorganising.com/ ❤️❤️
http://moretobooks.blog/2023/10/30/more-to-the-nose-family/Costas Andreou
Kathryn’s work and passion have won awards she has been featured in OK magazine, The Sun newspaper, Good Housekeeping, and numerous other mediums like TV and Radio.
Just incredible and inspirational Her Books have only received 5-star reviews everywhere.
Some questions answered:
How did the More to Series come about?
Nine years ago, I changed from being a teacher to a Nanny and on the playground, parents and other nannies would ask what books I used and what activities I did, and that’s how my first book ‘More to Books’ was born.
I was always organising children’s playrooms and bedrooms but during the lockdown, I was caring for children of a divorced family, so was taking the children from house to house with science projects, homework books and PE equipment.
I noticed the more organised I was, the more the children thrived and the easier the lives got for the parents too!
I actually sent photographs of the decluttering and systems I had created to the Mum and joked I would give up nannying and become a Professional Organiser.
Never a truer word is said in jest, as ‘More to Organising’ the business and the book was put in November 2021!
I haven’t given up nannying entirely, and have had an after-school role since then too, as I love working with children and it informs my business and writing. I organise rooms and routines with children in mind and now I get to support even more families.
One of the routines all families seemed to struggle with was mealtimes. As a nanny, I have used mealtimes to help children learn important life skills but also, using my teaching degree and Master’s as well as my experiences as a teacher, I bring learning to life through food. I am also passionate about supporting children to have a healthy relationship with food and to think about sustainability. ‘More to Mealtimes’ came out in September 2023.
What do children learn from your books?
My books are directed at parents, nannies and practitioners, so the learning is with the adults. My wish is to encourage and empower adults to think about purposeful learning. The children learn through day-to-day activities. Especially the most recent two books, I am passionate about creating environments that mean children can be autonomous and grow their self-esteem so they have the skills they need for their future.
What is next for the More To Series?
I am focussing on workshops for Nurseries, schools and parents. I have collaborated with Action Amanda for Physical Development, Health and Well-being workshops in setting and with Amanda Littlecot, Clear Bubble Photo Organiser, for parent workshops on well-being, creativity and digital.
I am about to speak at Nourish, which is an event with Jenny McDonald, on how to organise your kitchen to save time and money.
I will be at Nursery World and Child Ed Expo and I am in talks with The Ideal Home Show about speaking on their stage.
As well as the books and workshops, I organise family homes to help children become more independent and make family life easier.
Follow me on Instagram @more_to_organising and head to www.moretoorganising.com for more information.
Just one of her many 5-star book reviews:
Easy to read and full of excellent examples of real-life situations with children that feel manageable in a busy parent’s life.
Many of the strategies used are also relevant to professional contexts and promote speech and language development, going hand in hand with therapy strategies.
The book’s style ensures an engaging read, with interesting anecdotes and practical ideas throughout!
There is nothing quite like inspiring children!
