About the author

Librarian Note: There is more than one author in the GoodReads database with this name. See this thread for more information.


Jane has tried her hand at landscape gardening, futon making, teaching basket weaving and soft toy making but only truly loves writing and illustrating children's books. Jane shot to fame with the success of her DAISY picture books, all about an irresistible little duck with big feet. More success followed with EBB AND FLO, whose characters were brought to life on television. Jane, her partner, and her menagerie of rescued pets travel the Mediterranean on an ex-fishing boat - and her adventures have provided the inspiration for many of her books. Most recently Jane has turned her hand to fiction, with the exciting adventures of BERYL GOES WILD and SHIP'S CAT DORIS.

Quite short, but it's great for ESL & small toddlers. It’s a good intro to sounds.

Simple book, but provides sounds for children. You may want to have students move, or direct a dance that incorporates the movement and action involved throughout this book. Would use for K-1st grade.

I little short and boring for my 2y/o, but maybe a good intro to Daisy for infants and toddlers.
