Northern Rivers artist and author, Chrissy Butler, is set to launch a
special new children's book; 'The Wonderful Place' at the South Golden
Beach Community Hall on Saturday the 8th of November at 12.30 pm.


This eco aware picture book is a delight filled look at the joys of
full term breastfeeding. Featuring luscious images of breastfeeding
moments and the musings of a toddler, this book sends a positive
message to families about breastfeeding.


"Author Chrissy Butler has gifted us with what is probably the BEST
homebirth book for families." – The Mother Magazine


Following the success of her first book 'My Brother Jimi Jazz' which
is about her family's experience of homebirth, Chrissy has created all
of the images for The Trust Birth Conference held in California. She
says: "All aspects of my motherhood journey have greatly inspired my
artwork." Chrissy continues to gather inspiration from her daily life,
recently designing the artwork for International Midwives Day. Her
painting featured on the cover of Australian Midwifery News and is
connected with midwifery globally.


"The Wonderful Place" is printed onto 100% post consumer re-cycled
paper is reinforcing the message of sustainability not only of
breastfeeding but printing as well. Chrissy Butler has grown up in the
Byron Shire, now living near Murwillumbah and is pleased to support
local printers and retail outlets.


"Chrissy's illustrations are magic in themselves" - Australian Midwifery News

parenting: "My hope is that this book will help spread a joyous
message about full term breastfeeding."
