 There is an article in this months Reading Time about the making of The Eleventh Sheep.  It is wonderfully positive because it was written by someone I know, me.  Kyle Mewburn wrote about his inspiration for the story. He lives in rural New Zealand and the idea came when he couldn't sleep because the lambs were bleeting for their mums.  The Eleventh Sheep been reviewed which is exciting.

"... With some rhyming text, delightful full colour pictures  and an enchanting little story, this hard cover picture book will be loved by children as young as three.  The format is great for this age group an it gives you a lovely warm feeling as you read it.  this is a perfect bedtime story..."
Review in the Ballarat Courier by Joan Stienman 6th June 2008
'The illustrations are Fun and Fresh.'

Hi Claire, I just bought 2 copies of your book today. I know that wonderful feeling when you see your book on the shelves.

My friend suggests you look up the work of Polly Dunbar. It might interest you.

Lovely to see you at Chapter Ten the other night.
