Her other books include The Swimmers and Found in Hong Kong, both beautifully and delicately illustrated by Kori Song, an award-winning Chinese artist. Following 12 years in Hong Kong, Joanne and her family moved to Melbourne.

Found in Melbourne was short-listed for the Speech Pathology Awards, Three to Five Years category. Joanne and Kori's most recent collaboration brings us the spectacular harbour city of Sydney. www.joanneocallaghan.com

Kori Song's beautifully composed and observant illustrations reflect her interest in the relationship between cities and those who live in them. Kori graduated from Sichuan Fine Arts Institute, in Chongqing, China and she currently lives in the UK. Her books with author Joanne O'Callaghan include The Swimmers, Found in Hong Kong and Found in Melbourne, which was short-listed for the Speech Pathology Awards.
