This week, it is my pleasure to introduce you to author Wenda Shurety as she discusses her new picture book Eva’s Imagination. I especially enjoy Wenda’s book for its focus on imagination, something I consider very important to encourage in young children. Without imagination, we are unable to see beyond what is and have little chance of progress being made.
About Wenda
Wenda grew up in the beautiful county of Norfolk in England and now resides in Brisbane with her supportive husband, cheeky daughter and two rescue dogs. Wenda loves to write children’s stories with heart; whether it involves diversity, science or the magical world of the imagination.
About Eva’s Imagination
Eva doesn’t know what an imagination is. With the help of her dog Chops, Eva goes on a hunt to find it. Eva’s Imagination is a delightful story about the power of the imagination that aims to inspire young children to find adventure in their surroundings rather than from screens.
Now let’s meet Wenda.

It’s still a bit feeble at the moment, but I trust it will make it’s own way back.

This story sounds delightful–and I love cat’s shadow (on the cover). I’m off to read the balance of the interview.

Eva’s Imagination is beautifully illustrated by Karen Erasmus, Jacqui. I love the way she shows what is in Eva’s imaginary environment in addition to her real environment.

Sorry for having put Wendy rather than Wenda in my original comment, Norah. Yes, the imagination gets lost sometimes, I know what you mean!

I didn’t notice, Christy, or I would have fixed it for it. It’s easy for typos to slip through. I’ve fixed it now. 🙂 Have a great week.
