Three Cheers for No-Ears!

Three Cheers for No-Ears!

Hill & Hole has been included in The Listener’s list of Top 50 Kids Books AND the New Zealand Herald’s Canvas magazine’s Best Books List … just in time for Christmas! Lucky me!

My advance copies of Three Cheers for No-Ears just arrived the other day. They’re looking splendid! It’s also being released in Te Reo, which is exciting. The story is about an elephant who discovers having tiny ears can be very handy. It’s a funny story with lovely illustrations by Deb Hinde, who also illustrated The Hoppleplop and The Bear in the Room Next Door many years ago.

It’s being released in January, so start saving your pennies!

Old Hu-Hu

Old Hu-Hu

Even MORE AMAZING news … Old Hu-hu WON the Book of the Year Award!!

I’m still too excited to write about the awards night. But hopefully when I get back from holidays, I’ll write a full report. It was very exciting winning the Best Picture Book Award. But Kiss!Kiss! Yuck!Yuck! won that a couple of years ago, so I knew what it felt like. But when they called my name for the Book of the Year award as well, I nearly fell over!!

The best part was meeting some of my favourite New Zealand writers – like Margaret Mahy, Joy Cowley, Gavin Bishop and Des Hunt. I even got to have breakfast with Piggity-wiggity-jiggity-jig!
