Happy New Year to everyone.
I am sorry for not being around much in the past few months. A sticky internet problem left me without a means to post on my blog site. That and the happy fact of launching my first Children’s book has kept me off this site for a while.
Here is an image of the book, which is available on amazon.co.uk and on www.emuink.ie website.
What is the story about?
Clearie, a one hundred year old schoolhouse, is fed up.
For so long he has helped children get educated but been rewarded only by their complaints about how much they hate school.
He longs to get away
His dream is to go to France, a country he has heard so much about in geography lessons over the years – but how could a schoolhouse possibly travel?
He comes up with a plan and enlists the help of the the Buggy twins: but not everything works out as he hoped.
With an attic full of crazy crabs, led by the fearless Lancelot, his journey is less than enjoyable and in his absence the school system falls apart.
Will Clearie’s dreams come true and the children get their wish for schooldays to end forever? Or has everyone bitten off more than they can chew?
congratulations and what a cute cover!
