Corinne Fenton's new picture book

September 17, 2019

Congrats to the lovely Corinne Fenton on the Oz and UK! publication of

Scruffle-Nut

Illustrated by Owen Swan

Published by New Frontier, in hardback

For ages 3 - 9.

A wisp of memory takes Olivia back to her childhood and her visits to Central Park, where one day she spies a squirrel who is different from the rest. Her heart goes out to him and she calls him Scruffle-Nut.

This is a gentle story with a subtle theme of bullying. To be launched Oct 1.

Sounds like a winner - congrats again Corinne!
