Spinner the Winner is an illustrated storybook for children aged 5 – 9. It helps parents to introduce ‘renewable energy’ in a fun way. Superb images, memorable characters.STORY: A little wind turbine is separated from his family, develops a squeak and is vandalized. But when a nasty storm plunges the nearby town into blackout, his courage and hard work restore electricity, winning him lots of new friends. Mother-of-3, Sarah Hoss, UK: "Beautifully illustrated story of a little wind turbine dealing with the trials and tribulations of life along with the debate about wind energy. The characters develop quickly, some gentle leg-pulling of authority along the way, and all ends well. Perfect introduction to environmental concepts, with an emphasis on kindness and family.”Reviewer LoopyLu says: "A brilliant tale of a friendly wind turbine who saves the day! With lovable characters, lots of laughs, drama and fab illustrations; a page-turner even for adults. Great to see a children's story touch on an important environmental theme in a fun and digestible way. Should be read in every primary school."Karen, USA: “As a journalist who covers the environment, I'm thrilled to see Spinner the Winner. I grew up an avid reader, and I remember vividly the stories I memorized as a young child. But these are different times, and today's kids need different stories. It's a real trick to introduce youngsters to the pressing problems our planet faces without turning them (or their parents) off. Spinner the Winner effectively informs while keeping the story lively and entertaining... and with fantastic artwork. If more kids learned about real issues through books like this, we might not have such divisiveness in adulthood.”Nicholas Anderson: “This is an interesting, unique story with good illustrations. The overt message seems to be about accepting new technology, but the story also conveys a good message of accepting and being yourself even if you’re new and different. …I’d recommend it for teachers in elementary school or young readers.”
