Presenter:
Judith attributes Dr Seuss’ fantastical tales about faraway places to her love of writing children’s books. She is an English teacher, intrepid traveller and modern wordsmith. After teaching phonemic awareness to children in Europe, the Middle East, India and China, Judith saw a growing need to support diversity in schools. Judith’s passion for developing children’s learning of phonics and phonemic awareness has resulted in wonderfully written and illustrated books that highlight the complexities of our written English, while developing children’s imagination, language and vocabulary in young readers.
After returning to Melbourne for the launch of her first children’s book The Oo in Uluru, Judith has since won the Speech Pathology (Australia) Children’s Book of the Year (2019).
