New picture book for Anil Tortop

June 30, 2020

Congrats to Anil Tortup for her gorgeous illustrations for

Tippy and Jellybean

Written by Sophie Cunningham

Published by Allen and Unwin (Albert Street Books), in hardback

For ages 3 - 6.

This is the uplifting true story of a koala who saved her baby from a bushfire, and the dedicated vets who looked after them until they were healed and ready to go home.

The publisher will donate $1 from every copy of this book sold, to the Bushfire Emergency Wildlife Fund to help fund emergency veterinary assistance and scientific intervention.

Great stuff - congrats again Anil!
