Event Description

Corinne Fenton is a beloved Australian author of children's picture books. Across 17 titles, she has built a reputation for retelling animal histories in a charming and accessible way for all ages. Her award-winning books include: 'My Friend Tertius', a Notable Book in last year’s CBCA Book of the Year Awards, 'Bob the Railway Dog', 'The Dog on the Tuckerbox' and 'Queenie: One Elephant’s Story'. Her titles 'Little Dog and the Christmas Wish' and 'One Christmas Eve' were chosen as themes for the Myer Christmas Windows. Corinne's latest work, 'To The Bridge', is the true story of Lennie Gwyther and his pony Ginger Mick, both nine years old when they left Leongatha in Victoria to ride six hundred miles to Sydney to see the opening of the Sydney Harbour Bridge.

Illustrator Andrew McLean previously worked with Corinne to provide the beautiful images in 'Bob the Railway Dog'.

Maroondah Cr Kylie Spears will launch the book. Join Corinne and Andrew for a delightful morning, including a reading of the book, a drawing demonstration of a pony, and lots of fun kids' activities.

Book sales and signings provided by Dymocks Eastland. Craft activities for children will accompany the session.
