What’s in a name?

STET is Latin for 'let it stand'. It's used by proofreaders to overrule a suggested edit. The babySTETs blog aims to give you the confidence to know what to do and what not to do as you venture through the world children's book writing, editing and publishing.

Julius Caesar’s Goat (Dick King-Smith 10-Book Collection)

Great Caesar’s goat! What’s that smell? Oh wait, it’s … Julius Caesar’s goat.

Butter stinks so bad that armies flee at the merest whiff of him. No one understands how Caesar can bear to be near this pungent pet, let alone cuddling up with Queen Cleopatra. She might be beautiful, but she uses Siberian wolf wee for perfume and rancid donkey milk for bathwater!

No one knows that Caesar lost his sense of smell as a boy. And they’re certainly not going to risk telling him that his goat and his girlfriend stink!
