I am writing to you with the aid of my Ballerina Panda pen. You know, the one that makes your words dance across the page.
Guess who is number one on my Secret Spy Watch List?
Go on. Guess!
It's Miss Dragone.
Miss Dragone has always been an ordinary, boring, Grade Four teacher with no surprises and a loud voice.
But not anymore.
These days she is acting weird, strange and highly suspicious.
I've been watching her very closely.
Conclusion: Miss Dragone is in danger.
I just know it!

2 y separately published work icon Fairytales for Feisty Girls Susannah McFarlane , Crows Nest : Allen and Unwin , 2018 14072218 2018 selected work short story

'The renowned girl hero and feisty author presents an illustrated collection of 'tilted' fairy tales featuring girls with smarts.

'Feisty: typically one who is relatively small, lively, determined and courageous. Girls can rescue themselves—just watch Rapunzel, Little Red Riding Hood, Cinderella and Thumbelina create their own happily-ever-afters in this beautiful and emboldening bedtime book. A glorious treasury for young girls—and boys—featuring artwork from four leading Australian illustrators: Beth Norling, Claire Robertson, Lucinda Gifford and Sher Rill Ng.'
