DUCHESS OF YORK SARAHOpen the antique gate and enter a secret garden where a world of enchantment and wonder awaits... Children will delight in this charming tale about an old oak tree that is not what it seems, for frolicking fairies make their home among its sheltering branches. When the fairies spy from on high that Lily the Lamb is in trouble they discover it will take more than a sprinkle of magic dust to free her. Perhaps the Butterfly Catchers will know what to do. Can they help to return calm and harmony to the Secret Garden and all the creatures who dwell in it? Will they come to see the old oak tree for what it truly is - the heart of this special place? An enchanting, heart-warming tale from Sarah, Duchess of York.

Veronica Rooke first picked up a pencil at five and... well... hasn't put it down since. She felt she'd reached the dizzying heights of fame at 13 when her very first six-part comic was published in the local newspaper. But it has now been delegated to the 'never to see the light of day again' file! She won money in a cartoon competition at 16 and thought 'I can make a living out of this'. She has done that since 1987. Veronica is the first to admit it's not been as easy as her naive teenage self imagined it to be. But learning to take harsh criticism and turning rejection into success has been invaluable. She has created many illustrations in different styles, including two- and four-page comics, a six-year comic serial, a graphic novella and a 10-part science feature. These have appeared in the School Magazine and Oi Oi Oi comic.
