Integrative counsellor and children’s author Kadija Taha is preparing to release a new series of books created around the concept of ‘Helping young minds thrive.’
LONDON, UK. January 20th 2026 – Building on her work in children’s literature, Kadija is expanding her collection with stories that use creativity and imagination to explore emotional wellbeing, positive thinking and early educational development.
She explains that her interest in storytelling began in childhood, influenced by a strong connection to classic children’s books and traditional fairytales.
A defining moment occurred during her pregnancy when she noticed an unusually large number of birds and squirrels gathered in her garden, an experience that left a lasting emotional impact.
“The number of birds and squirrels was about four times the usual amount. It felt as though there was a celebration taking place in my back garden. It was such a pleasant and captivating sight, one that made you want to keep watching.” Said Kadija.
This moment later inspired her first children’s book and helped shape the overall direction of her storytelling approach.
Kadija’s professional experience as an integrative counsellor strongly influences the messages woven throughout her stories.
Her books are designed to encourage positive behaviour, foster healthy thinking patterns, and support both emotional and academic development in young readers.
“My stories help guide children’s behaviour, encourage early positive mindsets, develop healthy thought patterns, and support academic learning through a unique perspective of the world around them. Not only are my stories written for children, but they are also enjoyable for parents to read with them.” She added.
Her latest published title, The Advanced Alphabetical Book for Children, is available now in paperback, hardcover, and Kindle formats. A book trailer can be viewed here.
The book uses bright illustrations and engaging language to introduce the alphabet in a way that supports early literacy development.
In addition to her currently available work, several new children’s titles are scheduled for future release.
These include The Way to the Moon, The Twelve Rooms in the Moon, The Window at the Bottom of the Ocean, and Breakfast in the Garden, which is due to be republished.
The books are published by UK-based Maple Publishers, a company known for supporting imaginative and engaging literary works.
Further details regarding publication dates and availability for upcoming titles will be announced later this year.
