Susie K likes science instead of netball and has the class goldfish for a best friend. But Susie's mum finds it hard to believe that she's happy that way. She's constantly trying to push Susie (with the best of intentions, of course!) to be something she's not. And the last thing Susie wants is to disappoint her mum...
Susie's mum is delighted to hear there'll be a talent quest at school ... except Susie has no skills she could perform on a stage. But even though Susie would much rather stay home doing crossword puzzles, she uses all her problem-solving skills to become a show stopper!
In this fresh new series find out how Susie's unconventional problem-solving skills + Mum's optimistically high expectations = hilarious results.
Shamini Flint lives in Singapore with her husband and two children. She began her career in law in Malaysia and also worked at an international law firm in Singapore. She travelled extensively around Asia for her work, before resigning to be a stay-at-home mum, writer, part-time lecturer and environmental activist, all in an effort to make up for her 'evil' past as a corporate lawyer! Shamini has written many books for adults and children, including the popular Diary of a Soccer Star series.
Sally Heinrich is an illustrator, printmaker and writer, who has published and exhibited widely in Australia and Asia.

Her commissioned artwork ranges from wine labels to a mural for the Singapore Zoo and community arts projects. Sally has lived in Singapore, Sydney and Darwin and is now living in Adelaide. People who have heard her sing are very happy that she sticks to drawing.
