​Uh-oh! Kiwi needs a wee-wee, and he can't sop weeing everywhere wee-wees don't go: on the floor, in the swimming pool, and even on poor Penguin's lap! Oh, feathers. Will Kiwi ever learn to use the big-bird potty?

A laugh-out-loud tale of one kiwi's journey to being a big bird who wees in the potty and not, well, anywhere and EVERYWHERE else! With hilarious illustrations and rollicking rhymes you can't help but sing along with, this is the perfect potty-training book for encouraging little ones.

The Snappy Shark - coming soon!

I was fortunate enough to work with Tim Budgen a few years back on a very special project called Only One of Me. He's not only a very talented chap, but an extremely nice and kind-hearted one! I've been hoping to make more books with Tim ever since, and thanks to Scholastic, it's happening.

THE SNAPPY SHARK will be available in August in the UK. I hope you'll enjoy meeting Mark the Shark and his underwater buddies as much as Tim and I enjoyed dreaming them up.

You can pre-order now. Here's the blurb...

'An exciting snappy series from award-winning duo Michelle Robinson and Tim Budgen.
When Mark the shark is playing with his friends, he loves to try his best.
But no matter how hard he tries, sometimes he loses at the games or colours outside of the lines.
And the more mistakes he makes, the more frustrated he gets until he...
SNAAAPS! But when there's a commotion in the ocean,
can Mark use his best talents to save the day?

The perfect picture book to help children to navigate their big emotions.
With a message about patience, friendship, and celebrating your strengths.
Bouncy, rhyming picture book text by Michelle Robinson, bestselling author of The Pumpkin Who Was Afraid of the Dark, Ten Fat Sausages, How to Wash a Woolly Mammoth and many more.
Bright and bold illustrations full of character by Tim Budgen,
illustrator of This is Me! and the Twenty at Bedtime series.'

Daddy's Footsteps - now in paperback!

​DADDY'S FOOTSTEPS is now available in paperback! It's illustrated by Paddy Donnelly and published by the very lovely people at Andersen Press.

I'm so glad this gorgeous book is finding its way onto shelves and into hearts. It's very special to me; I wrote it when I moved to Canada and was feeling very blue about moving away from my dad.

You'll be able to find it pretty much anywhere you can buy books -- including the UK's major supermarkets. You can order it online, too, at my Bookshop.org store.
