'Think of the COOLEST, FUNNIEST, most HANDSOME kid in school, times it by a gazillion and you get DEREK DILBERT DOOL. At least he thinks so . . . Pity he’s the only one.

'Life’s tough when your name’s Derek. You’re destined to be uncool. But Derek is determined to find something - anything - that will change that. He’s sick of being picked last in PE, of not being invited to parties, and of all the cool kids using his freckles as dot-to-dot challenges. Derek is going to find something that will make him SUPERCOOL and nothing is going to stop him.'

1 y separately published work icon Adventurous Abbie Fiona Harris , Scott Edgar (illustrator), Richmond : Five Mile Press , 2018 14796575 2018 single work picture book children's

'Welcome to Moopertown! In Moopertown, everyone is special – in their own special way!

This fun, funny and affirming series will entertain children of all ages. In each book we are introduced to a new Mooper – Musical Markus, Nervous Nellie, Dramatic Dom, Giggling Gertie, Adventurous Abbie and Quiet Quinn. At first they seem to have a really silly trait – Markus loves to sing…all the time, Nellie is always nervous, Dom is overly dramatic, Gertie just can’t stop giggling, Abbie is very adventurous and Quinn prefers the quiet life – but it’s these very traits that eventually transform these Moopers to superhero status!

'With humorous, sweet, character-driven stories and a richly-detailed world that children will engage with, this exciting new series celebrates the idea that our differences are what make us unique, and we are all capable of being superheores when we can see the best in ourselves.' (Publication summary)

1 y separately published work icon Quiet Quinn Fiona Harris , Scott Edgar (illustrator), Richmond : Bonnier Publishing Australia , 2018 13463916 2018 single work picture book children's

'In Moopertown, everyone is special – in their own special way! Quinn just wants a little PEACE. It’s not that he doesn’t love busy Moopertown – it’s just that he prefers a quiet life. But Quinn is so quiet that he’s sometimes overlooked by the other Moopers. And sometimes they forget he’s even there! 

'Poor Quinn. How does a quiet Mooper fit in a rowdy place like Moopertown?' (Publication summary)
