I’m excited to share something close to my heart. My new children’s book, A Penguin’s Travel Journal: Australia, is officially out in the world — and I couldn’t be more proud of how it turned out.
If you have a young reader in your life who loves animals, fun facts, or exploring new places, this story follows Jackie the Penguin on a playful adventure across Australia. Along the way, kids meet kangaroos, koalas, platypuses, and emus — with real animal facts woven into the story in a way that sparks curiosity and learning.
Parents and grandparents who’ve read early copies told me their kids didn’t want to put it down, which is the best compliment an author can hope for.
If you’d like to take a look, the book is available in both paperback and eBook editions:
📘 Paperback: https://amzn.to/4bsjl6E
📱 eBook: https://amzn.to/3N7HZ4B
(You don’t need a Kindle device — the free Kindle app works on any phone, tablet, or computer.)
Thank you to everyone who has supported my writing journey. If you decide to check it out, I hope it brings a smile to a young reader in your life.
