When I was little, I absolutely loved The Suitcase Kid by Jacqueline Wilson - I was a big Jacqueline Wilson fan in general really, I loved all her books but The Suitcase Kid was always my favourite. I must have read it about 50 times - especially over summer cos I'd have the time to just sit and read the whole book all at once! I loved Nick Sharratt's illustrations too back then. :]

Yay, that's my monster at the top! :D Loved this project, it was so fun to do, and the final totem pole looks awesome. Thanks Oppy! :]

i never wear matching socks. ever. to the point where i will actually go out of my way to find odd ones.

i have a weird fear of blotchy biros. i just can't use them. since this tends to happen once a biro is about half empty, it means i have loads of half used biros lying around that i can never use.

i also like to sit on really tall chairs where my feet don't touch the floor. i'm not completely sure why.

Illustration Play: Craving for the Extraordinary - the front cover looks all collagey and beautiful. :]

is the page orientation meant to be landscape or portrait?
