When Hollywood calls…
If a Hollywood agent were to come knocking on your door with an offer to turn your book into a movie and told you that you could call all the shots, who would you have direct and star in it? Write the first paragraph of a glowing Rotten Tomatoes review of your film.
To be honest, if a Hollywood agent came knocking I would be completely surprised…. I would prefer someone from the Australian Children’s Television Foundation come knocking and offer to turn my Green Oaks Primary School books into a TV series.
For staring in the series, I love the kids who are in Little Lunch. This is a series based on books by Danny Katz and is really well made. I enjoy watching it with my kids – a sign of a good kids TV show.

I don’t think Rotton Tomatoes review kids TV shows… Although a review could be something like:
The Green Oaks Primary School series is a much watch for primary school students. It covers a variety of issues that impact students including bullying, fitting in, organising fundraisers, learning new skills, and being true to yourself. Based on the books by Melbourne-based author, Melissa Gijsbers, they are entertaining as well as educational.
