Pamela Allen is a phenomenon in the world of children's literature. For over thirty-five years, her picture books have enchanted generations of children in New Zealand, Australia and internationally, and many of her titles have won prestigious awards and presentations. She has earned classic status through the enduring popularity of her stories 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. Her award-winning books include Who Sank the Boat?, Bertie and the Bear, Grandpa and Thomas, A Lion in the Night, Belinda and Mr McGee Goes to Sea. Eight of her books were adapted for the stage by Patch Theatre Company, and were performed at the Sydney Opera House before touring around Australia and New Zealand.
