Autorenporträt
As an Australian poet, it's hard to find work in the Outback. But there are children all over the world struggling to learn how to read. Some of them have hardly any books in their native language.That's why I created Bilingual Legends - to give as many children as possible the opportunity to read a story in their own native language. Typically, each book is published in the language of wherever its particular story originates. Usually, English text is also included, but in some cases another language is used instead. Recently, I've started releasing Spanish editions of some books too.I hope you enjoy reading my books!
