Here’s a photo from when I was working on Real P Here’s a photo from when I was working on Real Pigeons Flex Feathers. The Nest Plane is so funny. The pigeons stick their wings through the nest’s wing holes and flap! Sort of like how oars on a Viking ship. Frillback’s tail pokes out underneath like a boat rudder too- for steering! 🐦✈️ • #realpigeonsfightcrime #realpigeons #realpigeonsflexfeathers #andrewmcdonald #benwood #benwoodillustrator #kidlit #funnybooks #earlyreaders #raisingreaders #childrensbooks #illustration #wacom #kidsbooks #newrelease #newbook #funnybooks #kidslitart #bookseries #pigeons #pigeonsofinstagram #graphicnovel #comics #newrelease

“When I wrote the first book in the Real Pigeons “When I wrote the first book in the Real Pigeons series, I was trying to write a funny book for kids about a bunch of fancy pigeons who solve mysteries by working together. At the time, I had no idea that teamwork would become a central thematic tenet for the series. Nor did I suspect that the series would effectively become a great act of teamwork itself. A creative collaboration that would change my life – and illustrator Ben Wood’s life too.” Andrew has written an insightful piece about working together on Real Pigeons. Go read and feel the feels!

It was really special to be a part of the touring school program and Family Day program at Carriageworks. It was incredible to be around book people again after the years that was.

I’ve been extremely hopeless with posting photos I’ve been extremely hopeless with posting photos from the Sydney Writer’s Festival. Real Pigeons are in the school program this year, which has been incredible to be a part of. Today Andrew and I ran a Real Pigeons Live Mystery for Family Day. It’s been really special doing in-person events again. Everyone is buzzing. It feels so special. I will post more photos soon, but just wanted to jump on and say that today was awesome. #realpigeons #realpigeonsfightcrime #sydneywritersfestival
