Charlie is a very cheeky monkey who loves playing with all his Australian animal friends. He is desperate to make more friends and one day meets a dingo called Donna, but Donna isn’t a nice dingo. One day, she encourages Charlie to play mean pranks on the other animals. Charlie goes too far and puts one of his close friends in serious danger.
Author: Liz developed the character of Charlie when she had a clothing business many years ago. Charlie was created to be the mascot for the fledgling business, but soon grew a life of his own. Performing at the Royal Children’s Hospital Melbourne, Hard Rock Café and the Teddy Bears Picnic to name a few, Charlie became very popular in his own right. After the business was sold, Charlie remained under Liz’s stairwell (much like Harry Potter) for several years, but Liz was very passionate about what Charlie could offer children and decided to write a book about him. She wanted to use his adventures and uniqueness to send powerful messages to children. Liz’s dream is to have Charlie perform to children again and to read his book with kids. Liz is a mother to two beautiful children and lives in Melbourne, Victoria. Illustrator: Varun Sharma is an Indian-based illustrator. He illustrates characters, doodles, caricatures, semi-realistic portraits and several worlds and universes. He is inspired by childhood, nature and dream-like worlds. Varun works with several materials such as watercolours, digital drawing and textured illustrations and has 8 years of experience illustrating textbooks, story books, rhymes, alphabets, picture books and vectors.
