CROCODILES NEED KISSES TOO is illustrated by Penelope Dullaghan and published by Viking/Penguin Random House, April 2020. Although it is my latest book to be published, it was written in 2005 when my eldest was a baby.

I love a character with attitude. Anyone that gives you as a reader the opportunity to really go for it when reading. The Cat in the Oi Frog series is a winner for me!
