 It's wonderful to share the return of adventurous Tulip, kind-hearted Max and their trusty pet rock Susan - and to introduce a couple of special new friends too!
In Tulip and Sprout: A Growing Friendship, we find Tulip, Max and Susan enjoying many new adventures together. But when the school holidays roll around, Max and Susan depart on a thrilling overseas trip, and Tulip's dad is busy working from home. Tulip's days become dull. Boring. Completely unadventurous. Until she makes a spud-tacular discovery that transforms everything ... Carla Martell and I have had such fun revisiting these characters - and we hope you enjoy reconnecting with them, too!

It's the story of an unlikely and ill-fated friendship between an adventurous girl and her ever-present sidekick - a potato called Doug. I'm absolutely in love with Carla Martell's superb illustrations which do such a beautiful job of bringing the story to life. Tulip and Doug is available in bookstores across New Zealand and Australia, and through all the usual online channels. I hope children and their families will enjoy this book as much as we enjoyed creating it! |
