You know you're caught in a whirlind when you cover 7 bookstores in 8 hours in the inner city of Sydney, then 8 bookstores in 8 hours in Melbourne the very next day! What a super cool time I had on this mini book tour for Plume: Global Nibbler. Huge thanks to the lovely Kirstie and Kasi and the team at Hardie Grant Explore, for organising.
I not only met some truly gorgeous people, but what a treat it was to visit stores I've never seen, and return to those I've always loved - decades later. Thank you to each and every store for your support and warm welcome.
I left a rather large batch of signed book copies in my wake (also Plume World Explorer and other books, too) in every single store, and below you'll find a list of each one, so pop in and snaffle one of these limited signed copies while they last.
Here are a handful of pics - I worked my tail off to get these photos, I'm posting some! LOL. The last one is Plume spotted in the wild at Sydney airport.

It was so lovely to see the kids engage with Plume and his love of food from all over the world. There was a lot of conversation about what foods are the most delicious!
