Children's Librarian Margy Heuschele officially launched Eric the Echidna at the Toowoomba Library on Saturday the 12th of September. She is pictured (center) with Illustrator Mick Grace and Author Deb Pacholke.
The children in attendance had a wonderful morning making Echidna masks and eating Echidna cupcakes, as well as listening intently to the story. Michael happily shared some of his drawing secrets.

A big thank you to my son Josh for the wonderful digital enhancement you have done to help make "Eric the Echidna" possible. Josh is currently in his second year of University at USQ in Toowoomba. He is studying a combined degree, majoring in I.T. and Multi-Media. Your expertise, skill and patience has paid off. A job well done. Thanks.
Love Mum. "Anyone would be crazy not to hire you!"

Great News

Great news the book is getting closer to completion, with the proof approved and printing in process. It looks like we will have a special advanced release prior to the launch, in aid of the Nurse of the year entrant Joyce Buckley. This is set to be held at the St Vincents Hospital Daffodil Day Breakfast on the 28th of August, 2009.

Tentative dates for the official launch are being chosen. It will probably be mid September at the Toowoomba City Library. This will help focus on the up and coming school holiday activities for the children. Online order forms will be available soon, along with outlet purchase details.
