Helen continues to generate stories that delight readers with her amusing and playful perspective on the world.  She is the author of Tales from Balladhoon, A Pineapple Dream and other Nonsense, Higgledy-Piggledy Thoughts, and I Just Met A Dinosaur!  And now, her newest children’s book, Adventures In Dinglewood, is available for pre-order!

“Helen Williamson and Nancy Atkins charm young readers with the magical adventures of Henrietta and Jasper as they encounter Dinglewood’s many zany woodland creatures. . . Adventures in Dinglewood would be a wonderful addition to any child’s bookshelf.”
—Anna Burger, author of Pea Soup and the Seafood Feast and The Sea Hunt

I Just Met A Dinosaur!, an exciting new children's book by Helen Williamson, ​is now available!

Picture
If you met a dinosaur, what would you do?
Play hide-and-seek or go to the zoo?
Who knows if their skin was pink, purple, or blue?
Or if they squawked, roared, or mooed?
Did they polish their nails and feathers and scales,   
And sharpen their teeth with the ends of their tails?

When you open this book 
of dinosaur rhymes
You’ll meet some of those creatures 
from long-ago times!
