Gorkle
Gorkle is a gremlin who lives in cyber space. He doesn’t like where he lives, it’s a miserable place because there are no bright colours anywhere. He likes the look of Earth. He really likes the brightly coloured text messages that humans send to each other, which he tries to keep.
For ages:
5-9
My Background
As an educator, I understand the importance of creating learning experiences for children that are fun and engaging. Whenever I pick up a book I think about how children will respond to it. Is the cover appealing? Is the title captivating? and What will the children learn from the story? are the questions I ask myself.
When I write a story, I write because I enjoy it, but as I write I am thinking about the illustrations and how the story will enhance learning experiences.
Readers' Testimonials
Gorkle is an epic children's book. I liked the dark forest theme. It would be very delightful for a young child aged 5 to 9. I was lucky to read one of the first copies. I think it's delightful.
Stephen, aged 11
I think the book is great. I love the description about the dog and the people in the story. I also like the surprise; it was so unlikely to fall. My favourite bit is about the people caring for the dog and showing how much they love him.
Emily, aged 9
Gorkle was fantastic, brilliant and and very colourful. The characters were amazing and the most beautiful thing I have seen.
Tenzin, aged 9
I like the book Two Can Be Trouble because siblings can have fun together but also disagree. In the end, siblings are friends again.
Woeser, aged 9
I like Rollo's Wet Surprise because it was funny and I liked that the illustrations because they were very accurate to the sentences. Well Done, excellent job.
