Learning To Fly (Stage 1 & 2)

Have you ever wanted to fly? In this 45 min presentation, Zanni takes kids through the magic of storytelling and shows that with persistence, courage and imagination, we can learn to fly like Pigasus, cartwheel down hills, play for the Matildas and write books … whatever it is that we dream.

Home is Where the Heart is (Stage 3)

In 2020, Zanni Louise's family had to leave their rental, stay with friends and move seven times over a summer. The seed was planted for Zanni's first novel.
