Publisher's Synopsis
Blurb:
We are first introduced to Zoe while she is cleaning her room. While cleaning she comes across an old drawing she had made of herself and her Grandma Ladybird surrounded by lots and lots of colourful flowers. This drawing reminds her of the trip she and her Grandma had made to a place called The Sea of Colours when she was younger. Zoe is then given the idea of finding The Sea of Colours and bringing back something special for her Grandma, SUNFLOWERS!Not long after setting out on her adventure Zoe is met with a tricky situation that leaves her lost and unsure which way to go... What will she do? ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Why the blank pages? I come from an early childhood education background and because of this I have leant that children will engage more with stories if they feel like they are a part of it.
Through doing this with some children over my time as an educator working with varying ages, I have learnt that children will sometimes draw themselves into the stories and as such they develop a stronger sense of identity and will actually participate more in story time which can also benefit the reader. Be it a parent, guardian, or a teacher.
So, my goal as an author and an educator is to write "blank page" stories for children to draw and engage more with the stories they read and with the people they read with.
