AUTOBIOGRAPHY
 

LIST OF TITLES




 

As an author, I use just my first name, Althea. I started writing in the late 60's, my main character being Desmond the Dinosaur, a series which I illustrated myself. Many of the books that I wrote a while ago are now Out of Print, I can provide copies of some titles, and hope to make others available through Lulu.com.  The first title on the Lulu website is Making a Car, illustrated by Tim Hunkin. I have now added Smith the Lonely Hedgehog, by popular request.

Some of my books are written to help explain new or difficult situations to children. Following on from Dyslexia (2003), the latest title in the Talking it Through series is Be Careful (2005) a book on home safety.

As well as writing, I work with glass, painting, fusing, slumping making dishes and other objects. I also work to commission creating windows or panels to hang in windows or to replace frosted glass.
