1 y separately published work icon Visiting You : A Journey of Love Rebecka Sharpe Shelberg , Andrea Edmonds (illustrator), Wollombi : EK Books , 2018 13623298 2018 single work picture book children's

'Heartfelt and poignant, Visiting You follows a young child’s experiences as they journey with their mother to visit a loved one. The world we live in is full of varied, diverse communities, and along the way they interact with many different people – a father living apart from his daughter, a bereaved husband, a granddaughter forgotten by her grandfather.

'Through reaching out to these strangers, the child discovers that, despite differences in appearance, age or culture, they all share one thing in common: love. This tale teaches that appearances are sometimes deceiving and that, no matter our differences, it’s our similarities that matter most.'
