DEBUT WRITER - FIRST CHILDREN'S BOOK "ROLY-POLY RILEY & FRIENDS"
I've recently completed my first Children's book (for 8/9 years up) . . . . "Come along with Roly-Poly Riley and Friends on an adventure - He's a lovable cat (he just looks grumpy) who likes to get out and about and explore the world around him. In this episode, Story One, he along with his terrier friend Captain Jack and Mrs Roberts find something of real value and interest to the Nation (NZ). See how things pan out for the trio and an extra surprise they all receive at the end of their venture." . . . . if you are interested please email gretacolenz@gmail.com
