COMING SOON Alice-Miranda At Sea

Hello Friends,

It's been a really busy week. I'm very excited that my new book Alice-Miranda At Sea will soon be launched - quite literally as we are holding the launch on a boat on Sydney Harbour on Saturday 6 August. There will be more details about that as soon as the official invitation is ready. This week my best grown up friend, Jacqueline Harvey sent the manuscript for my fifth adventure, Alice-Miranda Takes Manhattan to my special friend Linsay Knight at Random House. I can't tell you too much yet but we had a lot of fun in New York and you won't believe some of the people I met!

I think it's almost time for bed - it has been a rather exhausting week.

Have a great weekend and I'll see you all soon.

Love,

Hello Friends

Hello Everyone,

I am so excited. Aunt Charlotte's wedding is fast approaching and I'm going to be a flower girl. I can't tell you where the wedding will be yet because it's a secret. Poor Uncle Lawrence is always being photographed by the paparazzi and I'm sure that he and Aunt Charlotte would prefer to have their wedding as a private family affair. I do know that Aunt Charlotte and Uncle Lawrence are inviting Millie and Jacinta and Sep too. Of course Lucas will be there because Uncle Lawrence is his father. I can't wait. Have a wonderful week and I'll give you some more details as soon as I can.

Love and best wishes,

Jacqueline Harvey Talks to Patsy Aldana at the Sydney Writers' Festival

Hello,

My best grown up friend Jacqueline Harvey spent an hour this morning talking to a publisher who is visiting Australia from Canada at the Sydney Writers' Festival. Her name is Patsy Aldana and she interviewed Jacqueline to talk about my adventures and lots of other things about writing. Jacqueline told me that she had a great time and really enjoyed meeting lots of new friends.

I'm having a busy week too - helping Jacqueline finish off writing my fourth adventure, Alice-Miranda At Sea. It will be in the shops on the 1st of August.

Have a great week!

Best wishes,
Alice-Miranda xx

Jacqueline Harvey at the Sydney Writers' Festival

Hello,

My best grownup friend Jacqueline Harvey is teaching a workshop tomorrow at the Sydney Writers' Festival which she's very excited about. She's talking to adults about how to write for children. I think it's great when authors ask children what they like to read. It might even help them to write more books that children love. What are the books that you love?

I hope you're having a great weekend.

Best wishes,
Alice-Miranda xx

PLC Open Day and Fair Saturday 7 May

Hello to all my friends,

I am so excited that next Saturday I will be visiting the PLC Open Day and Fair at Croydon with my best grown up friend Jacqueline Harvey and another fantastic children's author, Oliver Phommavanh, who wrote a very funny book called Thai-riffic!

Jacqueline and Oliver will have books for sale and signing at 11.00-12.00 and then again from 1.00-2.00pm. All three of my adventures will be available as well as Jacqueline's earlier Code Name series. If you live in the area we'd love to see you.

Jacqueline and I have been very busy finishing off my next adventure, Alice-Miranda At Sea which launches on 1 August. I can't wait!

Hope to see you next weekend.

Best wishes,
Alice-Miranda
