Doggie Does Lockdown

In 2020, the Coronavirus (COVID-19) spread around the world. To keep people safe, millions of people were ordered to stay home. We called it lockdown. Doggy decided it was a time to get busy.

About the Author

Claudia Hutton turned 11 in November 2020. An only child, she felt the loneliness of being in lockdown during the 2020 pandemic when children were confined to their homes and experienced home learning for the first time.
 
As a gift to her cousins for Christmas, Claudia used her iPad to take photos of her toy dog and wrote this story. In her own way, she created an activity to keep herself busy and through ‘Doggy’ described her life through this very difficult time.

Percy the Pig

Percy is a curious pig.

All new baby animals learn by exploring, curiosity is a wonderful thing.

Join the farm family as they go on a hunt for our friend Percy the pig.

ABOUT THE AUTHOR

This might be Katey Chesterton’s first book, but her experience with children stretches back years, with the Sydney resident a long-time childcare worker with a speciality in working with disabled children.

It was here, in childcare centres around Sydney, that Katey first recognised the need for a new, positive character in children’s literature, and her work experience gave her the perfect sounding board to see which ideas were a hit, and which weren’t.

As result, Katey can’t take all the credit for this work. None of it would have been possible without the hundreds of kids around Sydney who helped her decide that Percy should be a pig, and helped decide on all the other characters, too.

Thank you very much for reading this book. Katey – and Percy – hope you like it very much.
