Pamela Allen is a phenomenon in the world of children's literature. For almost thirty years her picture books have

enchanted generations of children, both in Australia and overseas and many of her titles have won prestigious awards and

commendations both in Australia and overseas, and have earned classic status through their enduring popularity with the

very young. Pamela's books are full of the music of language; they are 'fragments of theatre', designed to be read aloud

and shared between an adult and a child. Eight of Pamela's titles were adapted for the stage by Patch Theatre Company,

and performed in the Sydney Opera House. In 2004, Grandpa and Thomas won the Children's Book Council Book of the

Year Award: Early Childhood and The Potato People was named an Honour Book in the same category in 2003, and

Grandpa and Thomas and the Green Umbrella was shortlisted for the same award in 2007, as was

Shhh! Little Mouse in 2008. Is Your Grandmother a Goanna? won a 2008 Speech Pathology of Australia Book of the Year Award.
