We are thrilled to announce that today is the publication day for Lorena Carrington’s gorgeous illustrated junior novel, Leaf Letters! This is the first novel Lorena has both written and illustrated for young readers and we are proud to be publishing this unique, beautiful book by one of Australia’s most original and gifted creators. We know readers are going to love it as much as we do, and in fact, already there have been two lovely advance reviews of the book, see here and here. And after the lovely pic of Lorena with her book, below, you can also see a young reader very much absorbed in it!
The book will be launched at Bendigo Library on Wednesday 3rd, 10.30–11.30 am, and if you’re in the area, you are invited to attend, meet Lorena, and grab your own copy of the book! She is also giving a special fun code-creation workshop for kids at Castlemaine library on Thursday 4th, based on Leaf Letters. More info on both events and to book here and here.
Congratulations to Lorena on a truly special book, and here’s hoping Leaf Letters finds its way into the hearts of many young readers!
