Book Title: Fun in the Clouds
Location: Australia
Remember, as a child, lying on the grass and picking out shapes in the clouds? Or gazing through your window and spotting a fluffy white cloud that looked just like a favourite animal? Janet Pattison certainly does, and she re-invigorates an excitement for cloud-gazing in young readers in her debut picture book Fun in the Clouds.
Janet was inspired to write her book when, one day, looking skywards, she realised that the sky always has a story to tell. She thought of her son, who suffers from crippling, chronic motion sickness, and thought of how so many sick children are bound to their beds or hospitals, with limited stimulus. Books, and cloud-watching, offer incapacitated children a way to enter a different world—and in Fun in the Clouds, they can find both!
The main character takes the reader on a sunny journey through the sky with native Australian animal cloud friends, challenging young readers to look for their own ‘Emmie Emus’ and ‘Koa Koalas’ in the sky. Including a word search, colouring-in page, and other fun activities, Fun in the Clouds is a beautiful, hardcover title for children to enjoy and while away the time with.
Janet Pattison is launching her book at the Sensitivity Unit at Craigslea State School on Saturday the 20th of May, 2pm. She is also donating five copies to the Lady Cilento Children’s Hospital School.
