Cover Love – introducing my soon to be released book ‘Singing Home The Whale’

I’m very excited about the up-coming launch of my new book ‘Singing Home the Whale’ – so much so I just had to share the cover with you to whet your appetite!

It’s due to be released in NZ 5th September and I’ll have a delayed launch (or two) when I arrive back in New Zealand. The first is planned for Wednesday 15th October at the marvellous Children’s Bookshop in Kilbirnie, Wellington 5.30 – 6ish, when I’ll also have the chance to talk a little about the great French experience! If you are in town do please come along. It’s always nice to welcome a new book properly into the world (just as I’ll be welcoming grandchild No. 1 on my arrival home as well!)

I’m proud of this book. It’s very different from anything I’ve written before and has really pushed me as a writer. I hope you’ll read it and love it as much as I do! And it’s got the most amazing drawings by my daughter Rose Lawson in it! Go to the dedicated page on this site and take a sneak preview!
