Lisa Southard writes a variety of stories for children and grown ups. 'Which is what writers are told not to do, it makes us difficult to market. But my life is full of children and adults and plants and animals, I don't like to be so segmented. A bit of chaos is good for us.' Currently she has four grandchildren, this book is the first of a series of early readers planned to help them all discover the fun of communicating through words and pictures.
