I'm often asked what age my books are for... that has to be the hardest question of all, harder even than how long does it take to write a book...?
Picture books are enjoyed by a wide age range, from babies who enjoy the pictures and the sound of your voice, through toddlers who start to get the story, and love the repetition of being read a favourite story. As children grow they will understand a bit more of what is going on in the story, and ultimately enjoy reading along or reading in turns - they may be able to read a chapter book, but it doesn't mean they can't still enjoy a picture book. And they can still enjoy being read to...
Picture books are the perfect length for a bedtime story - what better way to end the day than to read the whole book...!
