Ann commented: We just LOVED writing Fa-ra-ra boom-de-ay! One of the best types of children's books is one that's as rewarding to its creators as it is to the reader! Fa-ra-ra boom-de-ay! was a labour of love. It allowed the child inside of us to come out and explore! We want to inspire young children to read, create, fantasise and dream...added Jill.
