CALLING all creative kids! Here’s your chance to win one of five fantastic books by Shepparton’s own children’s author and teacher, Chris Grant.
Chris has combined over 10 years of experience in education with a lifelong love of storytelling to create books that are fun, full of laughter, and perfect for young readers, especially those who might not always reach for a book.
With titles like The Crazy Life of a School Kid, Garbage Duck, Roy the Space Cowboy, Kayla the Koala’s Year of Adventure, and Everyone at the Playground: Oh So Fun!, Chris’s books are made to be read aloud, laughed over, and shared at home or in the classroom.
