Reggie Round has always been afraid of the house next door. He’s sure wild beasts live in the garden – especially when he hears his parents talking about their neighbour’s aga panthers. What kind of feral beasts could they be? Will they invade Reggie’s yard? And is Reggie brave enough to find out?
A captivating story about broadening your horizons – and letting your imagination run wild.
About the Illustrator
Martina grew up in a small fishing village on the Baltic Sea in Germany. Here you could find her mostly galloping through the forests with flying piggy tails on her Shetland pony, drawing or reading. These days she is an illustrator and lives in Australia.
With a passion for colour and textures Martina creates happy images to evoke emotion and thought in young minds.Her works are inspired by nature, people, places, and the moving and silly things she sees out there... magic is everywhere!
Jane grew up in Melbourne in the late 60's and early 70's, and was influenced by the social and political changes of that time - including the peace movement, feminism and the environment movement.
About the Author
In the late 70's, Jane moved to the coast with her partner to live a different life away from the big city and to step more lightly on the planet. They hand-built their house over a year and moved in on a weekend in February 1983, only to lose the house and all their possessions 3 days later in the Ash Wednesday bushfires. This was a defining moment for Jane - she learnt what was important in life and that you could lose all your possessions, even your dream home, and still have everything.
Over the last 40 years, Jane has had a keen interest in community activism against inappropriate development and the destruction of the natural environment. She has a passion for gardening and enjoys long walks with her dog most days.
Jane has one son who was born not long after the fire, two granddaughters, and has been working in publishing for the past 20 years.
