There aren't a lot of places in the world more inspiring than the Kimberley. I got to tour there recently with HELLO FROM NOWHERE and believe me it was definitely somewhere! Somewhere very special indeed. (Is that the first line of a new book?)
Everything's big up there, except the aeroplanes. There's a certain librarian up that way who won't be able to open her hand again for quite a while! (I crushed it on take off.) As with all terrifying experiences, however, once you've mastered your fear you're flying high. Literally!
I visited Kununurra, Wyndham and the tiny, remote community of Kalumburu. We sat in the grotto and read books for Indigenous Literacy Day and I got more snuggles than I've ever had in my whole life.
Love the kids up there. They are how kids should be - there because they want to be, reading for pleasure, loving and affectionate.
