New Kids' Book: The Secret Cake
I've just published a new children's book, called The Secret Cake.
It's a simple illustrated book for young children, and was a collaboration between me and the illustrator Lynda Mangoro.
It's aimed at children aged 2-5, and would also be a great learning-to-read book for 4-, 5- and 6-yr-olds. This is the blurb:
"Katy's gran is 90 years old today. That's quite old. Katy wants to bake her a cake, but can she keep it a secret?"
You can "try before you buy", so to speak, by viewing a preview here.
Click here if you want to buy (£5 per copy).
I'm also collaborating with some other illustrators on a couple of books for slightly older children... watch this space.

Hello Clare. Lovely book, even if I am a little old for it. I see that Felix's granny is 93 - your Mum will be pleased :-)
In the meantime, I found a series of lovely posts about her books from just before I started reading blogs (July 2006); I'll definitely read the book I have already ("A Sound of Crying") and try and add to my collection.
I should probably add that I enjoyed the copy of "the secret cake" that I downloaded, and looking forward to the proper printed copy which I have also ordered.
Suddenly it's all happening! Congratulations.
Just to say that my printed book arrived today, and it's very beautiful indeed (I had already read the downloaded version). Lulu.com prints very well.
Oh good, I'm glad!
"Felix's granny is 93"
Oh God, I know. I only just noticed that typo. I'm hoping my mum won't mind too much... I did of course mean "great granny".
