Margaret Robson Kett's new picture book

July 15, 2019

Congrats to Margaret Robson Kett on the publication of

A Construction of Cranes

Illustrated by Caitlin Ziegler

Published by Kettlesnitch Press, in hardback

For ages 3 - 8 years.

Children love looking up at cranes. An exciting digital collage of colours and textures below a patchwork sky, featuring these giants of contruction, with a gentle rhyming text. This book will sit alongside those about diggers and dumpers in preschoolers’ hearts.

Available for purchase through the website .

With that perennial fascination, bound to be a winner! Congrats again Margaret!
