In today’s episode I’m chatting with a guest who has published 18 picture books and two novels. He is a highly accomplished and awarded author and illustrator from the Sunshine Coast in Queensland. He is Peter Carnavas.

Engage With Story often takes a more business or marketing focus when exploring storytelling so I’m excited to bring today’s interview to you as I speak with one of Australia’s best children’s authors and illustrators. 

In this episode

• The power of story to engage young and old
• Where he finds inspiration for his work
• How beauty and sadness play a role in telling engaging stories
• The importance of not ‘dumbing down’ a story - even when you’re audience is pre-school aged.
