New author Anna Spencer delights with Roglins, her new children’s book that bursts with verse, fun and in the grass adventures.
Having swapped her artist paints and canvas to turn her attention on these friendly little creatures that kept appearing every time she picked up a pad and pencil, the result is a first instalment of stories that will capture the imagination of every young reader. Showcasing both her artistic talent through her pencil drawn illustrations, and her storytelling skills, Anna’s easy-to read rhymes burst with the poetical meters favoured by Shakespeare and some of history’s finest poets and writers (including Longfellow, Larkin and Poe).
Aimed at readers aged six to nine, Roglins is not only hugely entertaining, but these mysterious and highly original literary creatures capture the imagination and curiosity of all. And in publishing this first instalment of Roglins’ adventures, Anna Spencer proves herself to be an exciting and accomplished new name in children’s literature.
