Actor
Hehe, what larks! Delighted to announce I’m now represented at Actual Talent in London.
Formerly known as CSA (est. 1993 as a division of Shepherd Management), Actual Talent was established in 2022 as a standalone, independent bespoke agency. At the helm is Karen Hough with 30 years experience as an agent – I’m thrilled to be joining her excellent list of actors. Onward and upwards 🪷
(P.S. The illustration above is one I created for The Rare Monkey picture books.)
The year of Covid has flown by and Christmas is just around the bend! If you’re after that unique stocking-filler or fabulous find that elicits the sought after “Wherever did you get this?!” then check out The Rare Monkey picture books!
“Any children’s book should have the principle target of entertaining its young reader first and foremost, but if that book is able to add a moral to its story, then it becomes the perfect children’s book. The Rare Monkey does both,” – review by BookWorm Mummy.
Optional gift wrap, dedication messages AND signatures by author Joanne Gale and Yours Truly (who did the squiggles) available at The Rare Monkey Book Shop.
Both The Rare Monkey with the Colourful Bottom and The Rare Monkey Can’t, Couldn’t, Can! are self-published and printed in the UK on responsibly sourced paper-stocks – a ‘Rare-ly’ special gift that supports a small, creative business.
Hope to see you at The Rare Monkey Book Shop and wishing you all happiness and health this festive season!
The Rare Monkey with the Colourful Bottom has now been adapted into a storytelling children’s show. Actor and author of the book, Joanne Gale gave the first run at the Faversham Fringe Festival and subsequently featured on the Dominic King Show on Radio Kent thanks to Mike Adams who was reporting from the festival. I took some pictures:
Busy illustrating the second Rare Monkey children’s book by Joanne Gale. Should be ready for all-kiddy-winks-everywhere by mid October.
