🤩COVER REVEAL🤩

I’m completely in love with the cover of my middle grade novel, ONE WRONG TURN - coming July.

Thank you to my amazing team at @fremantlepress & to the very talented Irene King for bringing my ballerinas to life. This little author cannot stop happy dancing 💃🏻

In Year 1, I won a school speech competition with a talk about our upcoming trip to Singapore. It included an impersonation of the orangutan I would be having breakfast with at the zoo.

Almost 30yrs later, it was exciting to be back, this time presenting as a published author 🥰

Very excited for this one! 👇🏻

Chuffed by news that my new novel MY FAMILY & OTHER SUSPECTS (out in October) will be published in the US next year in a deal with Knopf. All credit to my amazing team @AllenAndUnwin, who made it happen while I was busy getting brunch.

Bluey has a lot to answer for. Mr 3 now has a “magic leaf” that has the ability to make objects too heavy to lift.

He now keeps pointing the leaf at me and yelling ‘heavy!’
Given I’m currently a million years pregnant, it’s not great for the self esteem…

@kirovkate Having been in hospital with a young baby with RSV, the vaccine is a no brainer for me. No parent wants to see their baby struggling to breathe

@danielle_binks I’m still not brave enough to wear them outside the house because they were my house shoes years ago when they were still considered dorky. My husband and I were mocked a lot! But I still want book jibbitz for home 😉

@danielle_binks Who knew this was even possible?!

@sophiebeerdraws @CherylOrsini This is gorgeous! How special 🥰

If the Book Week costume parade fills you with dread…this might help!

Any dance attire works, any colour. Adjust the footwear to suit the parade location.

No glue gun required 😉

@LindsayBamfield Awww that’s actually very cute!

My 3.5yr old has been telling me all about a kid called ‘Galato’ that he likes to play with at prekindy. I questioned the name a few times, but he was adamant it was Galato.
Today I asked him to point Galato out so I knew who he was.

Michael. The kid’s name is Michael 🤦🏽‍♀️
