Sarah Milne

Sarah Milne is a mum, entrepreneur and author of the best-selling book Kiwis and Koalas. Sarah lives by the sea in Christchurch, New Zealand with her daughter and chocolate Lab – her inspiration behind the main characters, Lily and Woof.

Look closely and you will notice that Lily is wearing a cochlear implant, a way to subtly normalise differences and ensure that every child sees themselves in a picture book. The Kiwis and Koalas series was born out of a need to bring the people and places we miss together on the page.
