PICTURE BOOKS

A WITCH GOT ON AT PADDINGTON STATION

My daughter came home from school one day very upset. There had been an old woman on the bus coming home who was singing, and the conductor threatened to throw her off if she didn抰 stop. We both thought this was pretty outrageous. The next thing I knew, I had written my first picture book. It抯 about a witch who gets on a bus and won抰 stop singing.

JACK AND ALICE

Jack is a cautious, practical boy, and Alice is a girl with a lot of imagination.

ALISON AND THE PRINCE

My version of Cinderella.

THE WHALE扴 SONG

Most of my ideas come from things I抳e seen, or heard or read about. This is the only book I抳e ever written because I was angry. There were a lot of stories in the news at the time about dolphins being caught in the nets of tuna fishermen and killed. I couldn抰 stop thinking about it. I found myself muttering to myself on the bus one afternoon, practically vibrating with rage. And then I realized that being angry wasn抰 enough. I had to do something. So I decided to write a story. I didn抰 actually have an idea for this story, but when I was a kid I liked to sit on the beach (when no one else was there) and watch the porpoises swimming in the distance, and that memory eventually grew into this book.

rasanye tidak ler...

NOT SO YOUNG READERS

ONLY BINKY

It抯 not so bad having only one parent, but how would you like to be the only person in the entire class who抯 an only child? Binky thinks it抯 like being the only star in the sky, and decides to invent an older sister.

A BAD PLACE FOR A BUS STOP

It was Thursday, Dana Bindle抯 least favourite day of the week. On Thursdays Dana had her cello lesson. It wouldn抰 have been so bad if Dana was keen on the cello. It wouldn抰 have been so bad if the bus stop wasn抰 so far away. It still wouldn抰 have been so bad if Dana had got on the right bus that Thursday evening. But she didn抰.

MY BROTHER IS A VISITOR FROM ANOTHER PLANET

Adam抯 brother Keith tells him that he comes from another planet. Keith has been known to tell Adam some whoppers in the past, but there is something about this story that makes Adam think it抯 true. Maybe Keith does need a new Walkman for intergalactic communications. Maybe those really are extraterrestrial vaccination scars on the back of his knee. Maybe he really does need Adam抯 help so he can stay on the Earth
