I want to live in Nanny McPhee land!

It is a really great movie but I sometimes had trouble concentrating on the plot because I was too busy trying to take in all the lovely wall colours, crazy quilts, embroidered cushions....the list goes on and on. Everywhere there is a wonderful jumble of colour and pattern. Got to be seen to be believed and very, very inspiring. It even makes me want to bake cakes...

I have illustrated a pop-up book/box/thingy called "The Christmas Pop-up Present" and a picture book called "Claire and the Unicorn" and have a few more things in the works. If you go to my website and click on my agent, you can see my book stuff there.

I would love to do more picture books - stories that are sweet and fun.

Thanks for the nice comment.

you reminded me I have to see this movie! did you know it's based on the wonderful Nurse Matilda books illustrated by Edward Ardizzone?

I Hadn't heard of the books until I saw them credited in the movie..and I love Ardizzone's illustrations, so i might have to get some of the books even though my son is too old for them - I can still read them!
