Go JoJo Go by Tessa Bickford released

Go JoJo Go, a children's picture book written by a former staff member of Heritage Expeditions, Tessa Bickford has been released.

Go JoJo Go, about a little Gentoo penguin who lives on Macquarie Island, features photographs taken by Tessa during her time as a fur seal researcher on Macquarie Island. Over two summer periods, she monitored the breeding and population growth of three species of seals. In the summer months, penguins, seals and sea birds come in great numbers to breed on Macquarie Island, and Tessa found herself working on one of the island's busiest beaches. Being so close to the birds and animals each day, and getting to know their amusing habits, inspired her to create stories for children.

Go JoJo Go is available at all good bookshops throughout Australia and online.
