My published works include 'Once a Creepy Crocodile' (picture book) pub. Bonnier and shortlisted for Book of the Year 2015 by Australian Speech Pathologists, books on calligraphy for GMC (UK), Hinkler Books, Allen and Unwin and HarperCollins UK, and '101 Things to Do Before You Grow Up' as a co-author for Hinkler Books.
