Big Thinking Publishing

Hi! We're BTP. We publish books that make kids feel powerful and adults feel everything they’ve repressed since 2004 👋

We've got something up our sleeves... 🕰️

Meet local authors. Book Fair. Saturday 3rd May 2025, 10 am - 4 pm, Scorton Village Hall. www.bigthinkingpublishing.com

A book stall with Ransomed Hearts books on sale. A table with a black cloth, two display stands, books on the table, price and information cards, a pull up banner.

Fight for the Future Ransomed Hearts book 1 by Jeanette Greaves. The arrival of two young outsiders in Bardale catches the attention of a widowed farmer, who sees in their story an echo of the valley's darkest secret. Werewolves have returned to Lancashire. They may just want a quiet life, but fate has other plans for the brothers, who have escaped their past and must now fight for their future. Out now via Amazon and all good bookshops.
