Hello there!
I’m Sarah Allen, an Australian visual artist, author and illustrator with a love for native wildlife. My children’s books — Busy Beaks, Jumping Joeys and Ingenious Insects — share my passion for Australia’s unique species.
Collectively, more than 90,000 copies of my books have found their way into kids’ hands across the country. I hope to spark curiosity and connection with the natural world.
