Kia ora. Ko Emily tōku ingoa.
Hailing from South Canterbury, I now call the Wellington region home. The people and landscapes of Aotearoa inspire my writing.

I’m thrilled to announce that my first book, picture book Sleep is for Babies! will be published by Scholastic New Zealand this June. My story has been brought to life thanks to the hard work of illustrator Julia Hegetusch, designer Vida Kelly, and the publishing team of Lynette Evans, Penny Scown and Abby Haverkamp. I hope that Sleep is for Babies! brings enjoyment to many a child.

If you would like to purchase a copy of Sleep is for Babies! please contact your local bookstore – the book is being sold by Paper Plus, Whitcoulls, Unity Books and The Warehouse amongst other retailers. This Book Hub webpage also lists some bookshops which sell the book online.
