Purchase options and add-ons

Told through the eyes of a child who wants a new pet, one that's rip-roaring fun! In her quest, we encounter animals different and strange, uncovering interesting facts about them.

Do you know how long a snail can sleep for?
How are a lobster's internal organs different from the norm?
What is unusual about the kiwi bird compared to most of its feathered cousins?
What motor skill limitation does the kangaroo have?

A delightful story which encourages us to appreciate what we already have.

The purrfect book for all the cat lovers in your life, the young and not-so-young.

This rhyming story was originally drafted in 2013. The author met her husband in 2015, a cat fanatic who had never owned a cat due to allergies. When they moved from Spain to Australia in 2018, his allergies disappeared and they adopted a ginger street cat named George. Stylised photographs of George appear throughout the book, alongside more flat graphics of other characters.

A portion of the profits from sales of this book are donated to Paws and Claws Adoptions, the organisation from which they adopted George.

Full content visible, double tap to read brief content.

Hayley writes for children and adults on themes ranging from contemporary relationships, and thoughts and feelings to animals, water and toilets. Her books include:

MY PURRFECT PET (Spanish edition available),

THINKBEINGS,

CAPTAIN PLOP SERIES (water conservation, wastewater recycling, and desalination),

PEACE OF THE PUZZLE (a reimagining of The Lady of Shalott).

A travel enthusiast with a toilet obsession bordering on unhealthy, resulting from more than a decade working in the water utility industry, Hayley seeks out interesting toilets around the world and anything on the topic of toilet history leaves her flushed with excitement. She has an ever-increasing pile of photos and anecdotes which she is working on turning into a loo-themed book - or maybe two.

Based in South Australia (when she's not in Spain with her Spanish husband), Hayley has worked as a librarian, yoga instructor, and English as a Second Language teacher.
