Eccentric New Talent on This Block

There's a new talent in town. The author is eccentric, has a unique and stylish fashion sense, is a mini-diva, owns the stage and has freckles. I'd like to say she's just like her aunt, but I don't have freckles. ;)

Let me introduce to the world, five-year-old Amy Gardner's first book - Aladin - a piece of fan fiction.


And she did it all by herself with no prompting, as evidenced in her own words: "Mummy thought I was just drawing things but I was making a book." And she gave it to ME... Sorry, I know your books are all precious and I do keep them behind glass once I've read them, but this is my favourite book of all.
