Kate Simpson grew up on a diet of Little Women, Anne of
Green Gables and anything written by Enid Blyton, but it didn't
occur to her to try her own hand at writing children's books until
she was in her thirties. Now she's hooked, and with two small
children of her own, she finds she's never short of inspiration. As
well as being a picture book author and incurable bookworm, Kate is
also a co-host of the children's book podcast One More Page,
where she happily spends an hour a fortnight interviewing fellow
book-folk and talking all things children's books.
Ronojoy Ghosh is an award-winning picture book creator. His first
children's picture book Ollie and the Wind was short-listed
for the Children's Book Council Book of the Year Awards. His books
have been translated into German, Chinese, Spanish and Korean. Most
recently, Ronojoy illustrated the bestselling picture book I'm
Australian, Too by Mem Fox.
'The colourful, double-page illustrations beautifully capture their quirky humour and illuminate the poignant juxtaposition of physical isolation and emotional intimacy that makes this such a moving and heart-warming story of a human connection that transcends mere distance. Highly recommended for kids aged 4+ and perfect for reading with any grandparent.' Readings
