Overview'The dog is barking. The pans are crashing. The monsters are growling. The water is splashing. The hammer is banging. The telephone is ringing. The trucks are revving. The birds are singing.' From imagining monsters with big sister, to playing at the park with Dad and pretending to talk on the phone, Alison Lester's board books are about everything a little person does in a day.

Table of ContentsReviewsAuthor InformationAlison Lester grew up on a farm by the sea, and first rode a horse as a baby in her father's arms. Her picture books mix imaginary worlds with everyday life, encouraging children to believe in themselves and celebrate the differences that make them special. Alison is involved in many community art projects and spends part of every year travelling to remote Indigenous communities, using her books to help children and adults write and draw about their own lives. In 2012, Alison became Australia's first Children's Book Laureate, a position she shared with Boori Monty Pryor. In 2016, she was awarded the Dromkeen Medal for her outstanding achievement in the creation of Australian children's and young adult literature, and in 2018 she became the first children's book writer to win the Melbourne Prize for Literature, for her outstanding contribution to Australian literature and cultural and intellectual life.
