Kia ora everyone. News from me! I’m excited to announce that I’m in the process of selling Pictura to a wonderful former regular customer (how good!!) in Nelson. Super exciting stuff. All should be sewn up within the next few days, at which point the new owners will pause the website for a wee refresh while they build their own vision.

In the meantime you can grab the last of my stock (not a huge amount on there but a few treasures) for 35% off. Boom!

I will still be around and working on my next picture book, due out in 2027. You can keep in touch and follow me at 🙏

Why did this make me emotional! Bye! ♥️

Soooo here we are! 😅 It may come as no surprise that I have decided to start winding up my wee business 😭 As you can imagine things look a littttttle different out there nowadays and it’s no longer sustainable for me to continue. Boo.

I’m currently busy working on my own picture book so this isn’t the end of my journey in the world of children’s books, nor will it be yours I’m sure as you continue to source brilliant books for the little ones in your life (you obvs have great taste 💅).

SO let’s have a big ol’ sale! Take 25% off ALL BOOKS, while stocks last. Online now.

Subscribers: I’ve emailed you! Check your inbox. I won’t be taking on new subscribers now sadly, though.

If you or someone you know would like to take over the reigns of Pictura, feel free to fire me a DM or email [email protected]. In the meantime, enjoy the sale!

Big love, booklovers x
