I'm getting ready for my favourite day of the year . . . This delightful story captures the magic of the festive season and summer holidays in Australia. About the I'm Ready series: The I'm Ready series is a collection of fun, bright board books about exciting milestones and events in many children's lives. These gorgeous board books are designed as handy explainers for children that parents can trust, with a look the whole family will love. The I'm Ready series serves as a stepping stone between first concept books (numbers, alphabet, colours, animals, etc) and longer narrative picture books. They are ideal for children ages 3 to 4. The series is illustrated by Jedda Robaard, a beloved Australian author and illustrator. These gorgeous books will win over parents and children alike with Jedda's adorable illustrations, full of familiar Australian scenes, animals and flora. The books are about key experiences in a child's life, whether it's feeling anxious about starting preschool or getting ready to celebrate with family.
About the author
Jedda Robaard grew up in a small town on the island of Tasmania and now lives on the coast of Victoria with her husband, children and a variety of pets. Jedda trained as a graphic designer, the manual cut and paste way, and ran children's art and craft workshops for many years. The interaction with her young students, a passion for her craft as well as family life and a discerning eye for the innocuous but evocative little moments in life all contribute to her page-turning, whimsical and imaginative illustrations and stories for children. Jedda's books have been published in many languages including English, French, Dutch, Greek, Italian, Korean and Chinese.
