Thrilled to share the adorable jigsaw puzzle books I collaborated on with the fantastic Dublin-based publisher, @townhouse_books Townhouse Publishing! 🎉

What began as a Jungle Train jigsaw puzzle book has blossomed into a delightful four-book collection, thanks to the incredible response to the first book. I’ve just wrapped up work on the final two titles, and I can’t wait for you to see them next year! 🚂✨

Currently, Jungle Train and Farm Train are delighting young readers in Portugal, Spain (Spanish and Catalan), Greece, Brazil, Argentina, Italy, Slovakia, Finland, Lithuania, Denmark, and France. Excitingly, English editions are in the works and set to launch soon—stay tuned!  A huge thank you to the amazing team at Townhouse Publishing—Ellie, Kate, Hannah, Veneta, Holli, and their boss—for trusting me with this project.
I’d also like to express my gratitude to my agent, Will, for his invaluable support throughout this journey.

If you’re looking for a passionate illustrator to bring your project to life, please reach out to my wonderful agent at @advocateart01 Advocate Art. I’d love to hear from you!

To Our EU Customers 💌

If you’re based in the EU, please take a moment to read the announcement in the slides. It’s an important update about upcoming changes due to new regulations.

I’m truly hopeful we’ll find a solution to these challenges soon. Running a small business has become increasingly difficult with so many new hurdles, but I’m committed to navigating this as best as I can.

For our UK and non-EU customers, there’s no need to worry—these changes won’t affect you, and we’ll continue trading as usual.

Thank you all for your incredible support during these tough times. 💕

Warmly,
Liv
