Winona's Inspiration

Winona Wallaby, adrift in a void of creativity, goes to the beach to think. She is soon rescued by her son, the clever and silly Willy Wallaby, whose adventurous spirit leads her mind on a journey across time and sea to face a test of trust and willpower.

Written for reading aloud, Winona's Inspiration is a love letter to patient parents and energetic kids, who together bring a warmth and light to the world that we hope you can share with your children through watercolor-inspired illustrations and silly voices by the fireside.
