- Page Turner - Flash Version Author and illustrator: ©Helen Thornhill Helen was so inspired by the project that she started writing her own picture book, featuring children dreaming about customised wheelchairs. She explains: "If you had to sit in one all day what would you want it to do? I came up with ships, rockets and even a chair that could take you up to tree tops. I allowed my imagination to run wild in creating the crazy contraptions and enjoyed making the whole thing as lively as possible." Age range 4+ years
