AUTOBIOGRAPHY
 

LIST OF TITLES




 

I have come out from behind the cacti and updated my website!

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. By popular request I have now added Smith the Lonely Hedgehog.

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.

I work too with glass, fusing, slumping making dishes and other objects. I like working to commission creating windows or panels to hang in windows or replacing frosted glass or net curtains.  I teach and work with children at the Stained Glass Museum in Ely, the latest window has just been installed at St Martin's School in Shouldam.
