My latest book is a lively collection of finger rhymes for children 7 years-old and younger.

In times when children spend hours at a time passively watching screens, FIVE LITTLE FRIENDS swims against that tide. It’s an engaging, active, dynamic reading experience which brings poems and young readers to life.

It’s illustrated by Fiona Woodcock. Her artwork that is beautiful and also – in inviting and inventive ways – shows young readers playful finger shapes for the poems.

Come meet us both and get a signed copy of FIVE LITTLE FRIENDS at a launch event at @papercatbooks (25 Half Moon Lane, London SE24 9JU.) 10.30am on Saturday 12th July 2025. Full details here: https://www.papercatbookshop.co.uk/products/10-30am-sat-12th-july-craft-story-singing
