I'm absolutely delighted to reveal the cover of my newest book - out 1 November 2020 - AlphaKid!
An A to Z of Antics, it features 26 animals and their hapless (or proud or frustrated or entranced) parents as they draw, bake, toot trumpets, snuggle, dance and get out the shears!
'Annoying, bored, creative and daring, AlphaKid is every kid-at their best (kind, loving), worst (impatient, unreasonable) and in between (smelly, odd). Packed with heart and humour, kids of all ages will smirk and titter at this A to Z of antics, from dawn to dusk, chaos to calm.
A graphic-design style ABC book for little ones, AlphaKid is a humorous riff on the parent/child relationship. An overarching narrative takes the alphabetical entries from waking through to bedtime and the various careening childlike states the kids (and parents!) find themselves in during waking hours.'
It's a happy-making thing to tick off another Bucket List book in my career thus far - I simply adore alphabet books and it was an absolute hoot creating this with my wonderful publisher at Windy Hollow, Cristina Pase. This is the kind of book adults will love as much as kids, with two narrative threads showing both perspectives.
Cannot wait to share it with you in the wild. Click the cover to see the book details, and you can pre-order at Booktopia right here (or the online store of your choice). In stores 1 November!
