I have updated my mini e-book library :clapping:
For those of you who don't know, I have a range of mini e-books - little e-books full of information and advice about the EYFS, Childcare Register and other requirements.
They are about 15 - 30 pages long and they are packed with information on specific subjects.
Over time the range has grown and I wanted to make sure I didn't have any duplicated information which is already in my big e-books... I write the same things so often I confuse myself sometimes :blush: :laughing:
As a result of my updating, I have removed some titles, combined some titles into big e-books and revised other information to make sure it reflects current good practice.
If customers want updated copies of mini e-books they have purchased previously - and they are on this list - please contact me and let me know.
