Thongs, Crocs and Flip Flops
Author Bio
Mimi Lex keeps herself young by sneaking a peak at the world through the eyes of kids. Her stories celebrate the attitude and curiosity of that superior race of humanity, the non-adult!
She takes particular joy in their less flattering observations of the grown-up world.
When Mimi isn’t writing books she likes to kick around with her family, indulges in a little daydreaming, or keeps herself busy working on her other passions.
She also likes to keep herself occupied in her ‘other’ job – running a small strategic consulting enterprise.
Thongs, Crocs and Flip Flops
Mum says it is time to go…
Fionn is a boy who likes routine
and he doesn’t want to leave the house.
But when he puts on his favourite shoes,
suddenly his summer day gets brighter.
