Hi! I’m Christabel, a poet & children’s writer in Perth.
I write true stories and poems about the amazing world around us – from the trees on my street, all covered in bark, to deep sea creatures that glow in the dark.

“The playfulness and imagery of this poem really caught my attention, but the underlying meaning behind it made me gasp […]. This is a truly ‘sweet’ poem (excuse the pun).”

“The Seneque essay about trees was so evocative, beautiful to read, and the illustrations were sweet.”

“Christabel Seneque’s reflections on the local park in Nollamara took me right back to my childhood neighbourhood, it’s where I grew up in the sixties.”
