Hello!

Hello everyone,

I must apologise for my lack of recent blogging activity. You see my best grown up friend, Jacqueline Harvey has been away. Jacqueline visited New York where she met the lovely Francoise Bui, one of the children's publishers at Random House Delacorte, who is publishing my stories in the United States in April 2011. Jacqueline has also been away working on my fourth adventure, Alice-Miranda at Sea, which has been quite the most wonderful time. I am really looking forward to sharing my next story with you all in February next year. It's called Alice-Miranda Takes the Lead...but I'm not going to give you any hints about it just yet.

Anyway while Jacqueline was in New York she visited the most amazing store, American Girl and she found an American Girl doll who looks just like me. At the moment her mother in law is making her a Winchesterfield-Downsfordvale uniform so we can look just the same!
