Baby
Gets Dressed
written
by Katrina Germein & illustrated
by
Sascha Hutchinson, Working Title Press 2009.
It's
time to get dressed. But what will Baby wear? Help Baby choose.
A perfect
interactive book for parents and babies and a great way of introducing
Baby to the words for familiar objects. Spot varnish and bright
collage illustrations made from cut fabrics and painted papers
give this book a distinctly tactile feel. - (WTP catalogue)

In 2007 a manuscript
and visual storyboard I submitted to the Advertiser Little
Big Book Club program,, called 'See Me Move!' was chosen
as the winning entry from over 40 unpublished entries. The outcome
of this is that See Me Move! has now been published and
released as part of a free reading pack aimed to reach all new
babies in South Australia in 2008! Books published in the free
reading packs, are aimed to particularly appeal to children aged
0-12 months.
The Advertiser Little
Big Book Club is a
SA based reading program designed to encourage the parents to
read to their children as early as possible, and recognise the
value of deveoloping literacy skills in young children.The LBBC,
commissions the work for the reading pack, and is supported
by the Government of South Australia through Arts SA, The State
Library, through its Public Library Services and Public Libraries
of South Ausralia with the support of Local Government.
See Me Move! published by Adelaide publisher, Working
Title Press, is a book all about babies on the move! And
as all parents know, once a baby starts to moves, they never
want to stop! The story was inspired by my nephew, who Ive seen
develop from a wriggly newborn to a busy toddler!
Heidi Linehan, the
photographer for the book, has done a superb job photographing
all of the babies! Thankyou! (Despite the hazards of working
with children or animals!) And the parents and babies have been
great too!
