Learning Fencing
This book, written in a style easily comprehended by a child and containing motivating illustrations, was written with the youngest of athletes in mind. By inviting kids to complete individual tasks, to solve puzzles, to answer questions and to complete drawings, the book achieves the feel of an activity book. The little cartoon character "Foily“ accompanies the reader throughout the book, as he offers tips and invites the child to practice independently.

For the parents of fencing children it is an important motivational companion to fencing instruction.

The fence (MP3)
Gwen Hill has lived on Green Valley Avenue all her adult life. Here she brought her babies home, nurtured her garden and shared life's ups and downs with her best friend and neighbour, Babs. So when Babs dies and the house next door is sold, Gwen wonders how the new family will fit settle into this cosy community.

To maintain her privacy and corral her wandering children, Frankie proposes a fence between their properties, destroying Gwen's lovingly cultivated front garden. Soon the neighbours are in an escalating battle that becomes about more than just council approvals, and boundaries aren't the only things at stake.
