It happens every year, there are weeks of build-up and anticipation, to-do lists grow exponentially, there’s just so much on!
But it’s also wonderful.
So to get you started we have a bundle of books that would make amazing presents for any child. And who knows? Any one of these could be a new favourite!
Marketing and Publicity Coordinator in the colourful world of kids and YA books at Hachette Australia. I’m still trying to find a way to live inside picture book illustrations. I like robots (the ones that don’t decide human life is expendable), thinking about the outer solar system, rainy days at home, reading on the bus and cooked breakfasts with tea that is appropriately hot. Jessica Townsend once called me a scholar and a prince.
I was completely transported from my rather quiet office in Sydney to Jessica’s immersive and magical world of Nevermoor, a world she had spent a decade building. I fell in love with Morrigan Crow, a brave young girl after my own heart.
