Round Fish Square Bowl

內容簡介

內容簡介 This quirky yet charming picture book takes a very positive spin on being different. Cliches about the clumsiness of a 'bull in a china-shop', or being 'as mad as a hatter' are neatly turned around to be very positive and desirable traits indeed.

作者介紹

作者介紹 Skinner, TomTom SkinnerAuthorTom was a born and bred South Australian. With Round Fish Square Bowl, Tom has produced an improbable world first, an autobiography in a children's picture book! Tom was a self-proclaimed 'square peg' with a child-like view of the world; particularly the harsh realities of being different. A former postman with a degree in journalism, he pursued his desire to write fun, bright and colourful books with strong, positive messages for his readers. We are delighted to publish his beautiful, poignant picture book in his memory.Goss, MiniMini GossIllustratorMini Goss was born in Melbourne. Her mum was a model and her dad an architect and like lots of young people at the time her parents soon got on a ship and sailed away to find excitement in London. Mini lived in London and New York for most of her childhood. Despite going to groovy parties and meeting the odd pop star Mini, an only child, longed for a 'normal' life back in Melbourne with grandparents, cousins to play with and a dog.When Mini was a teenager she returned to Melbourne, got a dog, a cat, a rabbit and some birds. She was only allowed to watch one hour of TV a day so the rest of the time she spent drawing. Her favourite thing to draw was her dog.As a grown up Mini still likes to draw her dog, her cat, rabbits, birds, fish and her three children. Since starting to write and illustrate children's books about thirteen years ago, her pets and children have been the models for many characters in her books. Unfortunately she isn't allowed to have her own rhinoceros or elephant and so she had to go to the zoo to find models for the characters in Rhino Neil.Mini was awarded the Crichton award for illustration in 2002.Rhino Neil has been selected as a CBCA Notable Book for 2006.
