Thanks for coming Oliver! We loved having you here!
Don’t worry George, no one here knows what it is either.
Weird modern art in Perth. It’s very green. #ScribblersFest

We love this! If we were to do one of great Aussie authors, who would you suggest?
You write, I’ll draw. What a brilliant idea. Why not get a mate, give it a go and have some fun? Or at the very least watch the wonderful video of one of our faves, Michael Rosen below 😊
You write, I'll draw. Our new campaign celebrates author-illustrator partnerships & invites children to team up & create their own picture books. To find out more, watch magnificent @MichaelRosenYes with illustrations by @AFatimaharan bl.uk/authors-illustrators

Yay Ivy! There are still many feathers out there… and no one has found a silver or golden one yet. Could that be you? 🪶
The @scribblersfest #GoldenFeather hunt has begun! Lucky Ivy is our first winner, finding an Amethyst Feather at AH Bracks library Creative Space. #perthnews

Sugar, we commend you - the epitome of working smarter not harder.
Meet Sugar, she doesn't like to be ridden. If Sugar is approached with a saddle she lyes down and pretends to be asleep. Sugar refuses to open her eyes until the riders leave.

As Lisa Hanawalt (famous horse artist) points out, "Sugar" is a horse from a stock photo collection. twitter.com/lisadraws/stat… pbs.twimg.com/media/FVFnzLYV…
