BOOK LAUNCH: The Everywhere Train by Deborah Frenkel and Danny Snell

The Little Bookroom is excited to be launching the new picture book from Deborah Frenkel and Danny Snell, The Everywhere Train! Join the creators of the delightfully popular The Truck Cat as they share behind the scenes of their books! You can pre-order HERE About the Book: On Fridays, Scout goes riding on the train with Pop. They look at the world ribboning past, hello-goodbye-hello-goodbye … When Pop moves into an aged-care facility, it seems their train-riding tradition is over, but Scout and Pop make a plan …They build a station by his bed, make the tickets and board a train that can take them anywhere – to yesterday and tomorrow, to here and there, and all the everywheres in between. From the beloved creators of The Truck Cat comes a story about trains and traditions, children and their grandparents, and the everlasting power of memory and imagination. About the creators: Deborah Frenkel is a writer of books, billboards, and the words on the back of cereal boxes, which to date is probably her most widely read work (and certainly the most crunchy). Her picture books include the award-winning Naturopolis (2022) and The Sydney Harbour Fairy (2023). She's based on Bunurong land, in Melbourne’s Inner West, but spends most of the time squinting at horizons in her imagination. As a child Danny ­Snell was a reluctant reader, so it was pictures rather than words that drew him to the wonder of books. Danny went on to study graphic design and illustration at the University of South Australia and he now works as a picture book illustrator and author. His books have won a number of awards including the CBCA Eve Pownall Award, the Environment Award for Children’s Literature, and the Speech Pathology Australia Book of the Year Award. Danny lives in Adelaide with his partner, his two daughters and a sleepy old cat. And yes, he loves to read.
