Cork sets sail for South Korea!

"I'm so excited!" says Cork, regarding the news that South East Asian publisher Haneon has translated and published Cork on the Ocean for the Korean market. "It's great to be invited to South Korea," says Cork, who is hopeful this will be the first of many international publishing deals. "There's so many wonderful countries to visit in this world and I'd like to travel to as many of them as I can!"

The day I met Cork

A poem by Jo - aged 11, Miramar North School

Once upon a time there was a cork
And a very happy cork was he
He loved to make friends and talk
He's coming to tell tales about the sea

This cork he was brown and delicate
This cork he looked ever so light
This cork he had the smallest of eyes
I wondered if he had partial sight

As we talked he was happy and friendly
As we talked he seemed ever so nice
As we talked he was bobbing up and down
He sure seemed full of life!

There were tales of meeting a catfish
Tales of meeting a sea horse
When I asked him if he met any storms
He chuckled and replied, "of course!"

This cork, he seemed determined,
He was adventurous and had a smart mind
This cork may be bobby and small
But he really was one of a kind!
