Book 1
Releasing August 2026!

Sophie stopped in her tracks. She stared at the little group of animals, and they in turn stared back.

There was a kangaroo, a koala, a cassowary, and a bush turkey. It was, Sophie realised, the group of animals that her mother had seen that morning at the window. Sophie looked up as a flutter of feathers wafted to the ground. High in the trees she caught a glimpse of a galah.

It was Rocky-Ali who broke the silence. “Greetings, friends.” “Greetings,” replied the odd little group of animals. “Is this her?” the koala inquired in a hushed voice. “It is,” replied Rocky-Ali. “She is very little. No bigger than a wallaby, really,” the kangaroo said. “Would that matter, though?” asked the cassowary. “Of course it matters,” replied the kangaroo. “Will anyone take someone so small seriously?”

Book 2 Coming mid-2027

We're excited to continue Sophie and Rocky's adventures. Come along for the ride!

Sophie’s cheeks flushed, but before she could speak, a rustle in the undergrowth made every creature fall silent. From the shadows emerged a figure Sophie had never seen before—taller than the kangaroo, with eyes that seemed to hold both kindness and warning.

“She will be tested soon,” the newcomer said softly, “and size will mean nothing when the time comes.” Sophie felt a shiver run down her spine. She didn’t yet know what challenge lay ahead, but something told her this was only the beginning.
