I learned so much from this book. It should be compulsory testing for all Australian school children. If only all adults (myself included) were like Just-call-me-Carl. 5 stars. #deserttracks #aussiekidlit by @eileenobookworm

🪼Educational and entertaining!

#50waystodieintheocean by #eileenohely is out with @hawkeyepublishing TODAY and it’s fabulously fun and informative!

With top Illustrations by Nico O’Sullivan this #middlegrade graphic novel is the second instalment in the ’50 Ways’ series, perfect for curious kids and interested parents. 😆 But do not read this book, unless you want to laugh!

The ocean. Deep. Wet. And decidedly dangerous.

Two thirds of our planet is covered in water, but is it really safe to swim in it, float on it, or even look at it?

From sharks to stonefish, tsunamis to submarines, learn about what really lies beneath the waves, and why you should rethink your next beach holiday!
🌊
I loved the blue and yellow characters banter in this one, particularly how yellow pushes back and questions blue, who’s maybe a bit over-the-top!🤣

Eileen O’Hely is an award-winning author, science communicator and astrophysicist who brings facts to the page in a fun Q&A format, inspiring children to respect, care for, and explore some of the strangest and most surprising secrets of the ocean.
💙
And if you would like to know more, I’ll be interviewing Eileen next month!

This may change your mind about attending a writers retreat. On an island. In a castle. Great read! #evelynclarke by @eileenobookworm

Sometimes I travel puppet-free and in a tutu. Thank you to Karyn at The Sweet Plot Bookshop in Highfields. Tomorrow the puppets will be at it again at The Mad Hatters Bookshop in Manly. See you at 10!

The puppets made a couple of appearances at Noosa Libraries, kindly arranged by Rachel and pampered by Monica on the day, then dropped in for a photo op with Steph from Rosetta Books in Maleny. #50waystodieintheocean #aussiekidlit #schoolholidays #hawkeyepublishing #noosalibraries by @eileenobookworm

I rarely go anywhere without my puppets, and today they got to do a micro performance for Nicole Goldman from the Jim Henson Company!

September 8 is International Literacy Day. Increased literacy creates more literate, just, peaceful and sustainable societies. A big shout out to non-profits like Library For All who work towards this every day. And thank you to those translators who have helped my work reach international audiences. #internationalliteracyday #libraryforall #mercierpress by @eileenobookworm
