As the Australian Children’s Laureate, Sally is the national ambassador for reading and Australian children’s literature. Appointed every two years to promote the importance and transformational power of reading, creativity and story in the lives of young Australians, the Children’s Laureate spends extensive time speaking directly with children, education specialists, government ministers and librarians, in both metropolitan and regional communities across the country.

Through this mission, she works towards creating public awareness around learning difficulties as well as the most effective practice in teaching children to read. Sally's work spotlights the reading challenges faced by millions of Australian children – including but not limited to discussions around neurodiversity, disability, mental health, access to books and language barriers. 
 
Currently, as well as working on new books and her Laureate duties, Sally is working with an Australian production house to adapt her work for screen.
