Violet Mackerel's Brilliant Plot
Written by Anna Branford, published by Walker Books Australia 2010
Introducing the gorgeous Violet Mackerel, a character who girls 5 + are going to fall in love with. Violet Mackerel thinks she would QUITE LIKE to own the blue china bird at the Saturday markets. This is not just a SILLY WISH. It is instead the start of a VERY IMPORTANT idea. But what she needs is a PLOT. A BRILLIANT plot. Introducing readers to a new warm and loveable character, Violet Mackerel’s Brilliant Plot is a story not to be missed.
The illustrations for the Violet Mackerel series were created with Derwent Inktense pencils and watercolour.
