Kirra and Coco is her debut picture book, inspired by the imaginative stories her mum used to write for her and her brother when they were growing up. Now a proud mum to two beautiful (and delightfully cheeky) girls, Emily was inspired to create a story about courage, sisterhood, and adventure—where young readers can join in and take on playful challenges along the way.
