Hello!
I’m Sarah Allen, an Australian author and illustrator specialising in Australian wildlife picture books for children.
I’m on a mission to create adorable and scientifically accurate books that foster a deep love for nature.
Author visits
I’m available to visit primary schools, libraries and early childhood centres in Melbourne, Victoria (and in August 2025, the ACT). My tailored presentations and book readings are followed by fun, hands-on collage or drawing workshops.
Booking are open for 2025!
Book reviews
“Ingenious Insects is an incredibly important book. It is elegant, it is accurate, it is an engaging reference for families. It’s the perfect blend of art and science.”
“Jumping Joeys is a pure delight. Sarah has done an amazing job, in terms of species covered, ecological accuracy and her art!”
“Busy Beaks and Jumping Joeys are the perfect non-fiction books for all animal loving kiddos.”
“Busy Beaks is a delightfully illustrated children’s book that introduces some Australia’s most beloved and iconic feathered friends.”
