A curious and thoughtful little wombat, Winston is always trying new things and wondering about one thing or another. Luckily, his always loving and patient mom is there to offer encouragement, affection, and the answers to all of his questions―of which there are many.

Everybody’s favorite Wombat is back, and he’s desperate to cool down! Winston wants to play outside, but it’s SO hot. Luckily, his mom comes up with a great idea: They can play in the sprinklers! Together they jump and laugh and play in the cool water under a hot summer sun, and then things get even better. There’s a rainbow! Right there in the mist. But where did it come from?

With the help of his mom, Winston learns why rainbows appear when there’s mist in the sun, and how it’s just like friendship and love-something miraculous that you can feel and enjoy, even when you can’t catch it in your hand….

 

Interview 

Why did you use an animal in your lesson based books?

My Publishing Specialist, Astra Crompton, is an author as well.  She encouraged me to have an animal or a creature so that the character of Winston would be more relatable to more children.

Where do you do your writing?

I am very lucky to get to write in a treehouse my husband made for our son.  There are discussions as to who gets to use the treehouse at different times in our family.  I always ask Chase, my son, for permission before I have treehouse writing time.  The treehouse is magical.  It is a peaceful space that I can immediately find my creativity.

 

What’s next for the Winston series?

Book 4 is in the works.  I have just seen the pencil sketches and I cannot wait to share this book with everyone.  It is titled Winston Wakes.  Or Winston Wakes Up.  I have not completely decided on the title yet but it is one of those two choices.  Maybe you could help me decide.

 

 

About Megan:
