The Last Viking Returns was reviewed for the first time this morning! Here’s what ABC Radio Central Victoria had to say:
“Young Knut has to keep his twin siblings in check when he and his grandparents visit Viking World – a theme park like you’ve never seen before!
It’s full of detailed illustrations, runes to crack, lots of Viking references and a seemingly impossible villain to face – Fafnir the dragon. Sarah [Mayor Cox, children’s literature expert] says this is one of the most engaging books she’s seen in ages.
Young children will love it – it’s a good old fashioned romping adventure, which will have them gasping in anticipation of what will happen next.”

And stay tuned to this blog and the facebook page – we’ll reveal the official book trailer for The Last Viking Returns next Tuesday afternoon!
The State Library of WA has a new exhibition beginning November 2nd called Picture A Story, comprising works from their Australian children’s book illustration collection.
