A Good Adventure
Oscar the Rabbits and Friends Series, Book One
Have you ever woken up from a nap feeling a little peckish for
adventure?
When Oscar the Rabbit is rudely awoken by his grumpiest and very best
friend, McTavish, he insists they go on a trek.
The two have very different ideas about what makes for a good adventure,
but nonetheless, the Scottish rabbit hops behind his friend through the
prickly brambles, over the hillock, past the Kingdom of the Queen Bee, all
the way to a cornfield across the river.
There, they find unexpected treasure …
Excellent snacks …
And a loud, scary, corn-eating monster … also known as a combine
harvester.

Polly Goes Home
Oscar the Rabbits and Friends Series, Book Two
What would you do if a parrot came out of nowhere and started stealing your
snacks?
Oscar the Rabbit and his best friend, McTavish, the highland legend, yell
at Polly the parrot for stealing their food but quickly realise that the
bird is lost, hungry, and needing their help.
The rabbits put past crimes aside and go on an adventure to help Polly, who
only speaks in squawks, back to her circus home.
By the end, Polly has pecked her way into both rabbits’ hearts, and even
grumpy McTavish is sad to see her go. Oscar, meanwhile, is mainly focused on
the cotton candy…
This sweet story about unexpected friendships and circus delights is sure
to inspire laughter when read aloud to children ages 3¬¬–5 but
also works brilliantly for early school readers.

Pam, a set of bickering twins who get left in charge of a fluffle of baby

Otto Learns to Swim
Oscar the Rabbits and Friends Series, Book Four
This story about a baby otter having an identity crisis is as much for
children aged 3–8 as it is for the kid in all of us …
It’s Otto’s birthday, and he decides to become a pirate. The
only problem? His mom says that if he wants to sail across the seven seas,
he must first learn how to swim.
As Oscar the Rabbit and his bickering bunny friends, Sam and Pam, watch
from the riverbank, Otto gets a swimming lesson from his mum.
At first, he sinks. He splutters. He panics. And then he soars!
Soon, Otto is slipping through the river like a true otter. His pirate
costume, long-forgotten, Otto learns that all he needs to be on is
himself.
Read this story aloud to any small children facing the scary journey of
self-discovery or their first swimming lessons. It’s also perfect for

About the Author
It is hard to tell where a story comes from.
Sometimes I write an idea down, sometimes Adam, the illustrator, draws a
picture. Sometimes we both have the same idea at the same time which is when
we know we are on the right track.
I then write down too many words, and Adam draws too many pictures.
Adam and I then spend the rest of our creative time arguing over which
words and which pictures to use. Eventually, we believe we have chosen the
right words and the right pictures for the story.
We then try to turn the words and pictures into a book and realise that, in
fact, we must start all over again.
This is known as the artist’s journey.
