About Lissie Pendle

Lissie Pendle is, to a degree, about trouble.
It's about trouble which just...well, it just happens. Usually with the help of her little brother, or Scratcher and his friends, or just....things.
In the course of telling us about a number of pretty unusual events, such as the case of the killer koala, or what happened in old-fashioned trains' toilets, or when she met a lady who inserted capital letters into her conversation, or when there was blood instead of ink in the inkwell, or....well, a pile of other things, we discover an Australia of another time.
When things were clear, including the air, and life was simpler and, yes, funnier.
Although none of us, especially Lissie, realised it at the time.

Lissie Pendle can be obtained at http://imaginalworks.googlepages.com.
You can also arrange for the author to write a personal dedication in the book for you.
