E.L. Parfitt had the most "fabulous, stupendous magnificent idea" when she decided to create a series of 'Wee Stories'. Whether she wrote them in her pyjamas, or not, I'll never know. But you will find out why 'Dunn's Magnificent Idea' is better than television. The book reads effortlessly and fast, and captures the imagination with ease and clarity. I found myself wanting a few illustrations in the style of Quinten Blake or Shel Silverstein to compliment the storyline. 'Dunn's Magnificent Idea' is truly an enjoyable book to read, and soon to be, classic of the childrens literature. (Edward Szynalski)

My 5 year old son picked out Skeleton Cat as a bed time story. Without giving too much of the story away, this was a delightful light read and showed how Etheny was able to cope with her mom's passing. This is definitely for older elementary school kids going onto middle school, but my son had no complaints while I read it. (Diana Southammavong)

Autorenporträt

E L Parfitt is a long-time an admirer of Pratchett, King and Scottish authors such as Maggie O'Farrell and John Burnside. You can find her avoiding polite company while writing in coffee shops, parks... and well, that would be telling. Author of Temptation & Mozzarella, Shattered Roses and Seascape, Emma was honored to study creative writing from Douglas Dunn and John Burnside at St Andrews and went on to plan and implement creative writing courses for a diverse range of places such as Scottish Widows, Exeter and Warwick University and Huntercombe Hospital (a clinic for young girls with eating disorders). She also holds a Bsc, MA and PhD in biology, literature and storytelling. She would like to write for a living and research storytelling but life has a way of demanding the bills are paid first! Keep an eye out for the forthcoming book: Young people, learning & storytelling (2018).
