Autor/-in: Tamorin Lavers

As a child, Tamorin Lavers found the dress-up box became her treasure trove of possibilities. Using the old skirts, necklaces, shoes and whatever else her Mum had put in there for her to find, she immersed herself in imaginative play. Later, as a mother of three boys, the dress up box was there again, and the play became adventurous, noisy, and always fun. Even the box itself became a car, train, or rocket ship. As a midwife and an award-winning Australian artist, Tamorin joyfully illustrates her own stories, which she hopes will inspire all the 'grown ups' and children who read this book and have a spare cardboard box to fill.
