Posted @withregram • @farshorebooks Ever wonder why pigeons always act so weird? It’s because they’re out there chasing bad guys and saving your butts! 🐦

Real Pigeons Fight Crime is the must have funny fiction series for readers 6+, and it’s swooping down on March 4th! We can't wait for you to meet the super coo gang...

Flex those feathers! The Real Pigeons are back May 5th! 💪🐦

The REAL PIGEONS use PIGEON POWERS to fight crime and solve mysteries. But when CONCRETE starts mysteriously MELTING, a FEATHER-SNATCHER goes on a plucking-spree and a villainous HAT causes a GIANT problem, our feathered heroes will need more than just PIGEON POWERS to save the day!

Available for preorder at Booktopia or your local bookstore. Link in bio.

The Real Pigeons are coming to the Sydney Writers

The Real Pigeons are coming to the Sydney Writers Festival! Come solve a Real Pigeons Live Mystery with Andrew and I. There will be pigeons. There will be a mystery. And we will need the audiences help to solve it! 🐦

I will be also drawing all-things Real Pigeons at Art Class, and battling it out in the Illustrators Battle. 🖍

Feeling very honoured to be part of this years lineup. It will be so nice to celebrate the joys of reading and stories with everyone once again in a real life setting. #yay

Andrew and I have been getting such lovely feedbac

Andrew and I have been getting such lovely feedback from readers about the latest Real Pigeons book, Real Pigeons Get Bready. It makes my heart sing! ☺️ I can’t believe I started working on this book while I was in quarantine after returning from overseas. Working on this bright happy book got me through a lot of this strange year. I’m so glad it has brought fun and silliness to readers too. Thank you booksellers and readers for your excitement, enthusiasm and support! (Photo credit the amazing @little_bookroom )

Here’s a drawing that didn’t make it into REAL PIGEONS GET BREADY. I found it the other day and had to colour it. I call it “Attack of the Gluten!”

This was the first puzzle I’ve ever put together

This was the first puzzle I’ve ever put together without having to look at the picture on the box- I just knew the image so well. I think I’m a pro at puzzles now. 😂😉 I had so much fun illustrating the character-filled image. It’s out now in a book and puzzle box set. 🐦

I love public holidays because I find them really productive work days. 😂 Freelancer life! 🖍Here’s an old watercolour detail from one of my notebooks. I love the interaction happening between these characters.
