Perry & Perky's Fun-Filled Adventures contains ten delightful five-minute stories about Perry, a resourceful pygmy-possum, and Perky, an adventurous quokka. It is also available as two separate books in paperback, hardback, and eBook: Nobody's Friend (But that's not where it ends!) and Perry and Perky-the Adventures Continue. All stories are positive, wholesome and educative. They are primarily designed to be read to children up to seven years of age but older children who are good readers may enjoy reading them on their own. The 24 beautiful illustrations in the book are from watercolour paintings by acclaimed Australian artist, Emma Stuart. They include part-page, full page and double-page spreads. The book is 8 inches x 10 inches (20.3cm x 25.4cm). It has 66 pages and is available in paperback, hardback and eBook (.mobi). The paperback and hardback are perfect bound (glued spine) and printed with Standard Colour. Synopsis: Perry the pygmy-possum wakes up after several weeks-which he calls his torpor-time-to find that the land where he lives has been cleared. He's all alone and he sets out to find a friend. He meets Perky, an adventurous quokka, and together they travel anywhere and everywhere by train, aeroplane, brumby, truck, motorbike, ship and spaceship, enjoying life and making a difference whenever and wherever they can.
Autorenporträt
I'm a former primary school teacher with a Master of Education degree and I'm currently tutoring students in Maths and English after school hours. I expect to be doing this for as long as I possibly can because I love helping children to improve their school work and to improve their attitude towards it and themselves. I also teach English to migrants on a voluntary basis. Prior to writing my first children's book (Magic? Who Needs It!), most of the writing I had done was related to my studies and work as a teacher. I did enter two caption writing competitions and won both, and while this isn't story writing, it is evidence that I can be clear, concise and humorous.
