Izzy and Frank

Izzy loved her island. But most of all, she loved her bestfriend Frank the seagull.

 

 

They spend blue-sky-sunny days and grey-cloud-rainy days roaming and playing by the sea. But when Izzy moves away from her idyllic island life she must find her way in a new place, with new friends and a new school.

 

Accompanied by bright and lively illustrations, this gentle story examines the challenges and benefits of city living and the power of friendship.

THE AUTHORS

 

Katrina Lehman lives in Naarm/Melbourne with her three children, a gardener/baker/handyman husband, and a blue tongue lizard. She is lucky enough to spend all day crafting words as a writer and as an editor, helping authors unleash their inner magic.

 

Sophie Beer is an illustrator from Meanjin/Brisbane, Queensland. She completed dual bachelors in Law and Creative Industries at Queensland University of Technology before turning freelance. Revelling in colour, shape, and texture, she lives by one simple rule: art should never be boring.
