At Colo Vale Public two pigs came along to my author talk
Wilma and Dozer we’re honoured guests at my author presentation today.
Thanks to all the kids at Woonona Public and Russell Vale Public
It was super hot down at Woonona today, but all the kids at both schools I visited were awesome and enthusiastic. It was a great day. Thanks Shane Hambling from Woonona Eyecare for organising my trip. I’m sorry I don’t have a photo to share because I was having too much fun talking with the students to remember to take a picture. But rest assured at least one teacher was hit by one of my rockets.

Nanny Piggins 6 and 7 are now available in the USA!
‘Nanny Piggins and the Pursuit of Justice‘ and ‘Nanny Piggins and the Daring Rescue‘ are now available in America. Your local bookstore will be able to order them in for you. Or you can get them through your favourite online bookseller, such as BN.com or amazon.com
They are both totally awesome books (as Nanny Piggins would say, ‘It is nice to be modest, but it is wrong to lie.’)
In ‘Pursuit of Justice‘ Nanny Piggins gets in trouble with the law, encounters the many injustices of the justice system. She is sentenced to 50,000 hours community service, but in her indomitable style she turns this lemon into a lemon-cake, and the community has never been served quite like it.
In ‘Daring Rescue‘ Nanny Piggins ends up travelling to the birthplace of bungee jumping, where she shows the locals on Pentacost Island that she knows a thing or two about plummeting towards the ground face first.
So rush out and buy them both now. They are perfect stocking stuffers because at Christmas it’s fun not just to eat lots of cake and chocolate, but to read about eating lots of cake and chocolate too.
