Bracky Builds a New Den
Bracky Builds a New Den is the tale of a happy dinosaur whose life is turned upside down when a family member suffers a serious injury.



Aimed at children living in similar circumstances, the book has been developed following a period of research using tailored, professional advice from therapists and first-hand accounts from families and children who have experienced serious injury.
