The People Of Perth Read Merry Everything!



As a creator of kids' books, there could be nothing more thrilling than this--people enjoying your work. Add the joy of diversity in age and race (some of those accents!), the sparkle of tinsel, the squeal of a baby and the smiles and the laughter - there are no words.

Thank you, Carillon City Perth, for this memorable, touching and utterly beautiful festive experience. Jess and I are thrilled.

Happy Birth Day, Mamie!

importantnutrientsspot/search?q=mamie-november-2018-harpercollins" target="_blank"> Mamie has been some journey. Would take me three hours to tell you how this book came about... and I can still hardly believe today is the book's release day. It's all too surreal. I wanted to publicly thank my glorious publisher at HarperCollins, Lisa Berryman, for championing this book from the start, my wonderful editor Eve Tonelli and the entire team of HCP angels who've made this book dream a reality. There are loads of Mamie-related bits and bobs coming up--see posters below. I hope to see you at one of them. And watch this blog in the coming days for some wonderful print-outs for kids, and a book giveaway (which will actually be run on my Instagram account).

This Week One post will likely be all over the shop--I just have so much to tell you. It was the most unexpected month away, and of course--it went in a gumnut heartbeat. I've been wading though a million photos and I'm still not unpacked. It's already 2 December and there's nary a Christmas bauble in sight in our house (quelle horreur!). I'm melting the butter in a ray of afternoon sunshine as I type, because my annual Christmas cake is two months late. Since arriving home yesterday, I've cuddled and yabbered with my kids, performed repotting surgery on two fiddle leaf figs, put on three loads of washing (ironically, most of it not mine), walked straight past the mountain of ironing without batting an eyelid (I'm a changed w...
