Nishani Reed Author

Nishani Reed (Author)
Nishani Reed lives on a steep hill, which means that her garden is taller than her house! She spends a lot of time up there watching the pigeons on the roof and coming up with funny stories for children. Her first picture book, 'Nabil Steals A Penguin', is gorgeously illustrated by Junissa Bianda and due to be published in 2023. Nish is also an intellectual property lawyer, but none of her picture books contain legal advice. Her next story will probably be about pigeons on a roof.
