Mrs Grey is very worried. Again. Keith's hopping problems were fixed but now she has much bigger worries that she doesn't believe even Big Red the leader of all the kangaroos in the world can help with. There has been no rain for months and all the watering holes are dry. Terrifying winds have brought dust storms and bushfires but worst of all is what the humans have brought. Then one day Keith wanders off alone and sees something he just CANNOT BELIEVE!
Born in Woolwich, S.E. London and educated at the flagship Crown Woods Comprehensive School in the 1960's, my first job was with British Transport Advertising in London. I teamed up with childhood friend and illustrator Jim Robins to create Australian picture books. The fifth, "The Platypus Who Couldn't Swim', is out on 1st March 2021, followed by 'The Kangaroo Who Couldn't Believe It', an environmental theme featuring the characters from our first two books. I now live with my cat Toby in a cottage in a cottage in the Weald of Kent
