Colin the Chameleon cover

This is a gorgeous picture book that tells the story of a chameleon who, unlike his siblings, cannot change colour and therefore faces certain dangers. Eventually, Colin finds that it is this very difference that makes himself special and helps keep his family safe from a greater threat.

“Find dozens of hidden color-changing lizards in imaginative ink, monoprint, and collage artwork as they explore the strengths and benefits of being different.” —Foreword Reviews (U.S.) || “Her illustrations, which look like prints, employ multiple shades of green, brown, and yellow to great effect; bright Colin stands out! Simple and sweet.” —Kirkus Reviews (U.S.) || “Gorgeous ink mono print and collage illustrations perfectly complement the text.” —Reading Time (Australia) || “Quarry's simple descriptive and alliterative text is engagingly complimented by her ink, print and collage illustrations.” —ReadPlus (Australia)
