New take on fairytale

Sunshine Coast actor, director, playwright, producer and now – author Alli (A Bailey) will launch her children’s book, Snowy and the Seven Cool Dudes, at Peregian Village on Saturday.

Snowy and the Seven Cool Dudes is a fractured fairy tale of sorts.

A charming story of acceptance and kindness for young readers is delivered through rhyme.

Engaging and topical, this book features many of our beautiful Australian animals and landscapes.

Writing, directing and producing children’s educational, interactive theatre productions became a passion for Alli. Her cleverly written messages were woven throughout the fractured fairytale and then adapted to the stage.

Alli has successfully toured numerous productions Australia-wide since 2008. But it wasn’t until the Covid lockdown that she finally had the time to pen her adaptation of Snow White and the Seven Cool Dudes into this charming and beautifully illustrated picture book.

Featuring stunning illustrations of Australian animals and landscapes, by the talented South Australian Ziggy Moskwa, a scenic and mural artist and good friend and contributor on Jally Entertainment’s touring stage sets.

AJ (alias Ali Pope) will at Annie’s Books at Peregian Village Square for her book launch and reading on Saturday 8 January at 10am. There will be face painting, fairy cakes, music and fancy dress.
