Clementine's Own Way tells the story of Clementine, a shy girl who doesn't enjoy dress-up days—especially when her class is buzzing with excitement for the one hundredth day of school. While everyone plans wigs and costumes, Clementine just wants to feel like herself. With help from Mum and a jar of colourful pompoms, she comes up with a creative idea that’s both unique and true to who she is.

One Hundred Days is a gentle, uplifting story about celebrating milestones, embracing individuality, and finding quiet confidence. The book features sweet, expressive, and colourful illustrations that capture school-day fun and the warmth of small but meaningful moments.
