What readers are saying
Rhyming prose that is easily understood by the youngest of readers adds to the charm of this book.
This is a charming picture book for children, filled with whimsy and imagination. I was lucky enough to hear the author read it and she is a brilliant performer. Everyone was enraptured.
A magical tale that my grandchildren listened to without interruption and asked if Bobbin was going to have more adventures.
It was really easy to lose yourself in the story. Charming
A simple story for adults to read to young children, or early readers to try themselves. Packed with imaginative illustrations. Also a fun quiz at the back. I look forward to Bobbin’s next adventure
Why is he called Bobbin? - simple - it's because he keeps bobbing in and out of Fairyland where he lives and Folkland where he meets Erin's friends.

Born in Lancashire but now based in the Home Counties, Shelagh has always enjoyed drawing and painting. Although never pursuing this passion professionally in her principal career as a computer trainer, for the past seven years she has been a prolific full-time artist undertaking commissions in a wide range of subjects. As a child, Shelagh was a keen reader of fantasy-themed books, so it’s no surprise the first book she has written is in this genre.
Bobbin and the Magical Jigsaw is the start of her journey in the author and illustrator world and this picture book is a tale of escapism in the wonderful, magical land of fairies, folk and fantasies.
