My parents purchased an encyclopedia\u00a0set when I was around eight years old. It was a life-changing moment in our household.\u00a0 It was such a great thing to have all that knowledge at our fingertips.\u00a0 This was quite a while ago, before Google and the internet! My love of reference books started right there!<\/p>\n<p><b>What do you love most about\u00a0<strong>encyclopedia<\/strong>s?<\/b><\/p>\n<p>I think I love that an\u00a0encyclopedia\u00a0set tries to place, in alphabetical order, everything that we know about us, the world, the universe!\u00a0 I also love that some are old and musty and their pages creak when you open them.\u00a0 If you open up the page of an\u00a0encyclopedia you can go anywhere.\u00a0 You can find yourself in ancient Egypt or inspect the wings of a butterfly or explore a map of the moon.<\/p>\n<p><strong>What kinds of things did you like to learn about? Did you have a favourite entry?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>I don\u2019t think I\u2019ve ever stopped learning but when I was a kid I can remember loving the pages on clothes through history and birds of the world, as well as being fascinated by the entries on the human body.\u00a0 I also liked anything to do with history and based many of my stories that I wrote as a kid, on historical events.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Did you ever dream of running away to explore the world like Lenny and Davey did?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Yes, most definitely. Before we went to bed at night my brother and I would promise each other to wake up at midnight to run away together. I can even remember packing my little school bag for the journey.\u00a0 It wasn\u2019t because we had a bad life. We had a great life! We just wanted freedom and adventure.\u00a0 We never remembered to wake up at midnight though!<\/p>\n<p><strong>Were you very close to a brother or sister when you were growing up like Lenny and Davey are?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Yes, I am the third of four children. I am very close in age to my younger brother.\u00a0 We always shared a bedroom and talked about all sorts of things to get to sleep: listing alphabetically what we wanted for Christmas, who our favourite cricket players were, where we\u2019d run away to, if blackholes in outer space were real\u2026<\/p>\n<p><strong>Have you explored much of the world?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>I have travelled for many years, especially when I was in my twenties, and seen many places and had many adventures all over the world.\u00a0\u00a0 Now I travel with my ten-year old daughter and we have lots of fun planning our next journey.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Why is Lenny so obsessed with beetles?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>As an author I think I gave Lenny an obsession with something that I\u2019m quite fond of.\u00a0 I really like the insect world and in particular the amazing beetle world, from plain to dazzling.\u00a0 Lenny loves the amazing diversity of beetles and she wants to find out everything she can about them.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Was there a reason Davey\u2019s imaginary pet was a golden eagle?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>I think the golden eagle just sums up Davey perfectly. The golden eagle is a symbol, I guess, for his strength and his optimism and, mostly, his goodness.\u00a0 Everyone who met him was glad to know him.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Did you have an imaginary pet when you were growing up?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>No.\u00a0 But I had an imaginary friend, called Catherine, who came out of the pages of a book when I clicked my fingers three times.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Did you want Lenny and Davey to make it to Great Bear Lake?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Yes, more than anything.\u00a0 Maybe not through running away, but later in their lives, if things had turned out differently.\u00a0 I think Great Bear Lake is a symbol not only of Lenny and Davey\u2019s dreams but of how much they love each other.\u00a0 It\u2019s their place and, somehow, I kind of think they both made it there in their hearts.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Do you have a favourite part in the book?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>I think I have too many favourite parts to list, probably the encyclopedia and everything in it, but I also love Mrs Gaspar and her dreams. I also really loved writing about Great Aunt Em.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Who is your favourite character and why?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>I love both Lenny and Davey.\u00a0 Perhaps though, because I write in Lenny\u2019s voice, I love her the most.\u00a0 I love her thoughts on the world, her feelings, her curiousity, her sadness and her strength. I also love her sense of humour.<\/p>\n<p><strong>What was your favourite book as a child?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>I had so many favourite books as a child.\u00a0 I think I loved anything that had an adventure in it; from fairy tales like <em>The Snow Queen<\/em> to Frank M Baum\u2019s <em>Wizard of Oz<\/em> books to <em>The Neverending Story <\/em>by Michael Ende.<\/p>\n<h2>Read an extract from the book&#8230;<\/h2>\n<p>Click on the book below to read the first 35 pages of this awesome read!<br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/cdn.creatureandcoagency.com\/uploads\/2018\/09\/Lennys-Book-of-Everything-by-Karen-Foxlee_Extract.pdf\"><br \/>\n<img decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-20254 alignleft\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.creatureandcoagency.com\/uploads\/2018\/09\/Lennys-Book-of-Everything-cover-198x300.jpg\" alt=\"lenny\" width=\"198\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cdn.creatureandcoagency.com\/uploads\/2018\/09\/Lennys-Book-of-Everything-cover-198x300.jpg 198w, https:\/\/cdn.creatureandcoagency.com\/uploads\/2018\/09\/Lennys-Book-of-Everything-cover-768x1165.jpg 768w, https:\/\/cdn.creatureandcoagency.com\/uploads\/2018\/09\/Lennys-Book-of-Everything-cover-675x1024.jpg 675w, https:\/\/cdn.creatureandcoagency.com\/uploads\/2018\/09\/Lennys-Book-of-Everything-cover.jpg 1631w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 198px) 100vw, 198px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2><strong>Watch reviews of <em>Lenny&#8217;s Book of Everything<\/em> by other kids&#8230;<\/strong><\/h2>\n<div style=\"width: 480px;\" class=\"wp-video\"><video class=\"wp-video-shortcode\" id=\"video-20109-2\" width=\"480\" height=\"480\" preload=\"metadata\" controls=\"controls\"><source type=\"video\/mp4\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.creatureandcoagency.com\/uploads\/2018\/10\/Lennys-Book-of-Everything_KM8.mp4?_=2\" \/><a href=\"https:\/\/cdn.creatureandcoagency.com\/uploads\/2018\/10\/Lennys-Book-of-Everything_KM8.mp4\">https:\/\/cdn.creatureandcoagency.com\/uploads\/2018\/10\/Lennys-Book-of-Everything_KM8.mp4<\/a><\/video><\/div>\n<div style=\"width: 480px;\" class=\"wp-video\"><video class=\"wp-video-shortcode\" id=\"video-20109-3\" width=\"480\" height=\"480\" preload=\"metadata\" controls=\"controls\"><source type=\"video\/mp4\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.creatureandcoagency.com\/uploads\/2018\/10\/Lennys-Book-of-Everything_KM6.mp4?_=3\" \/><a href=\"https:\/\/cdn.creatureandcoagency.com\/uploads\/2018\/10\/Lennys-Book-of-Everything_KM6.mp4\">https:\/\/cdn.creatureandcoagency.com\/uploads\/2018\/10\/Lennys-Book-of-Everything_KM6.mp4<\/a><\/video><\/div>\n<div style=\"width: 480px;\" class=\"wp-video\"><video class=\"wp-video-shortcode\" id=\"video-20109-4\" width=\"480\" height=\"480\" preload=\"metadata\" controls=\"controls\"><source type=\"video\/mp4\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.creatureandcoagency.com\/uploads\/2018\/10\/Lennys-Book-of-Everything_KM5.mp4?_=4\" \/><a href=\"https:\/\/cdn.creatureandcoagency.com\/uploads\/2018\/10\/Lennys-Book-of-Everything_KM5.mp4\">https:\/\/cdn.creatureandcoagency.com\/uploads\/2018\/10\/Lennys-Book-of-Everything_KM5.mp4<\/a><\/video><\/div>\n<div style=\"width: 480px;\" class=\"wp-video\"><video class=\"wp-video-shortcode\" id=\"video-20109-5\" width=\"480\" height=\"480\" preload=\"metadata\" controls=\"controls\"><source type=\"video\/mp4\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.creatureandcoagency.com\/uploads\/2018\/10\/Lennys-Book-of-Everything_KA2.mp4?_=5\" \/><a href=\"https:\/\/cdn.creatureandcoagency.com\/uploads\/2018\/10\/Lennys-Book-of-Everything_KA2.mp4\">https:\/\/cdn.creatureandcoagency.com\/uploads\/2018\/10\/Lennys-Book-of-Everything_KA2.mp4<\/a><\/video><\/div>\n<h2>Win a copy of this incredible book:\u00a0Design the front cover of\u00a0<em>Burrell\u2019s Build-It-at-Home Encyclopedia!<\/em><\/h2>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/cdn.creatureandcoagency.com\/uploads\/2018\/09\/Lennys2.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-20114\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.creatureandcoagency.com\/uploads\/2018\/09\/Lennys2.jpg\" alt=\"lenny\" width=\"635\" height=\"404\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cdn.creatureandcoagency.com\/uploads\/2018\/09\/Lennys2.jpg 635w, https:\/\/cdn.creatureandcoagency.com\/uploads\/2018\/09\/Lennys2-300x191.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 635px) 100vw, 635px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>WIN!
