About the author

Anna Fienberg grew up in a house filled with books. Her mother was a teacher librarian who relished stories as much as chocolates. 'On Sunday mornings we'd all lie in bed with our books, lost in magical wardrobes, witches’ spells, genies’ magic… What we were going to read next was just as important in our family as what was for lunch!' says Anna.

Anna started writing stories when she was eight, but never imagined being an author. She studied psychology, fascinated by the dark world of dreams. She gave up counseling after an unfortunate incident with an enraged man and a chair (he missed!), began writing and scored the best job in the world. 'Working for School Magazine was a treat,' Anna says. 'I couldn't believe you could get paid for sitting back comfortably in your chair, cappuccino in hand, reading over a thousand books a year. Heaven!' Of course, as an editor she also had to write reviews and articles, stories and plays. One of those stories for School Magazine later became her first book.

So lucky to have an early copy of this wonderful book. It is a stand-out to showing colours to young children while stimulating imaginations.

[Paul Graham Terpstra]

Nice book. But they have reused many illustrations from a previous book. No wonder there is three of this series published this year alone.
Reusing illustrations. Smart or lazy.
Overall the book is good. But having read all three back to back, the reusing really took me out of the story.
