Scotland . . . Dumfries and Galloway . . . Local wildlife . . . the gems of this part of the world are hidden, but radiant! My stories are designed to make people want to come and visit this area. And picture books . . . well, who doesn't love them?!
They are supposed to be directed at children, but I think adults love them just as much, if not more!
I've been a song and story writer for as long as I can remember. Picture books are the stories that I remember from my childhood that fired my imagination. They made me fall in love with writing and the power that words have to create worlds, stir emotions and tell stories.
In writing my books, I want to try and do the same for the children and adults who read them. And if they want to come to Scotland after they have read them, then I would be over the moon!

About us
Children’s story books are special! We all have fond memories of them growing up. However, it is one thing to capture the imagination of a child through a story - it is something entirely different for that child to grow in their desire to understand and learn more about the world around them. Have You Seen? is not only a question that asks if you have visited a place before. It is an invitation to explore the world around us and learn where we fit in.
That is why it is vital for children to develop a love for reading and learning while they are still young. As they grow older, the world around them can become a confusing and challenging place. A child who grows up with a desire to read and learn has greater potential to benefit from any education they receive. This can be a powerful protection against misinformation. It can also help to prepare them for social challenges and pressures they may face in the future.
Here at Have You Seen? we are exploring additional ways and methods of helping parents and children to benefit from the precious, yet limited time that childhood affords to give children and young people the best possible start in life. We look forward to announcing new projects, initiatives and resources for parents to assist them in helping their children achieve their full potential.
