Nowadays, she is often found recording books, too, in Usborne's very own recording studio.

Reviews

[Christiana]

Christmas classic! My students enjoyed it, but we had to talk through what a lot of the figurative language meant.

[Nightshade]

Dec 2024: a brilliant little book of the traditional poem that is perfect for reading on Christmas Eve.

Funny how things age. Kiddo is very confused and concerned that Santa would smoke.
