Upcoming Book Launch — March 2026

This March 2026: Step inside The Wendy House! We’re launching the first children’s story in the series alongside A Comprehensive Guide to Therapeutic Horticulture, celebrating growth, imagination, and yes… even carrots.

The launch will be held across the Northern Rivers of NSW, with special events in Woodburn, Bangalow, and Nimbin. These communities, rich in creativity, nature, and connection, provide the perfect setting to share stories that honour childhood, resilience, and the quiet power of gardens.

Join us for readings, gentle conversations, and moments of reflection as The Wendy House opens its doors — inviting children, families, educators, and practitioners to discover stories and practices that help us grow, one small step at a time.

Children's Book

The Little Wendy House is a comforting story about imagination, safety and belonging.

Inside her very own Wendy House, Wendy finds a place where she can play freely, dream boldly and feel safe. It is a space where imagination leads the way, curiosity is encouraged, and learning unfolds naturally through everyday experiences.

As Wendy explores the world around her from this special place, she discovers that growth happens best when we feel supported, secure and free to be ourselves.

This story gently celebrates the importance of safe spaces for children — places where confidence, creativity and understanding can quietly take root.

It is the first in a series of Wendy House children’s books, where resilience is gently discovered through gardens, stories and safe places.
