With generous help from the WA Department of Culture and the Arts and the Copyright Agency Limited, I travelled to Bologna, Italy with SCBWI Illustrator Liaison, Frane’ Lessac to showcase the work of Western Australian children’s writers and illustrators at the 2010 Bologna Children’s Book Fair.
This gave me a wonderful opportunity to display not only my own books, but also the books of fellow WA members of the Society of Children’s Book Writers and Illustrators: Frane’ Lessac, Mark Greenwood, Matt Ottley, Meg McKinlay, Jen Banyard, Sally Murphy, Norman Jorgensen, Julia Lawrinson and Elaine Forrestal were displayed and received excellent feedback.
