My hats find a home!

My Madhatter’s Tea Party hat and giant Cappuccino Hat have found a permanent and loving home at Bygone Beautys Treasured Teapot Museum and Tearooms at Leura.

These hats received considerable media coverage at The Melbourne Cup and at Randwick Racecourse, also winning the Crazy Hat Competition.

The museum is well worth a visit when you are in the area with some stunning examples of Teapots and relevant paraphernalia.

You can find more information about the museum at http://www.bygonebeautys.com.au.

I’m pictured with Maurice Cooper OAM who is the owner of the museum.

Message in a Sock Shortlisted!

Message in a Sock has been shortlisted for the West Australian Readers’ Award! What an unexpected surprise, and next to some big names like Shaun Tan and Pig the Pug!

Book Week 2018

Thank you to the wonderful staff and students at Love of Learning ELC for having me… oops I mean “Moonbeam” the rabbit.. for Book Week 2018! I was especially lucky to be able to sit on a toadstool for reading time!

Message in a Sock Book Launch

I launched my new picture book Message in a Sock at the National Wool Museum in Geelong, Victoria. I finally met the author Kaye Baille, and Anna Solding, the editor of MIdnightSun Publishing.

It was a huge turn out, volunteers had made red crochet poppies, and Anzac Biscuits were served. The museum is so interesting, the staff welcoming and the historical building a great location for the book launch.
