We meet Sally Rippin

Today me and Little J went to mum's school and we met Sally Rippin, a fabulous author and illustrator. She taught us how to draw some of her characters. Millie from "Millie" and two monkeys from "Too many monkeys!" We got to buy a couple more of her books to add to our collection. It was COOOOOL!

My cake had a cat on it. From Little J...
