Children's Books
Written by Jack & illustrated by his wife Natasha, The Carty's books carry the same warmth and lyricism you'll find in Jack's music. Tender, imaginative, and made with love.
The Big Cooee
A Big Cooee floats out from the Australian bush and travels the world. Over sparkling oceans, windy deserts and starry night skies, weaving together a world of joy and wonder.
A lyrical, imaginative adventure that celebrates connection across distance, from the duo behind Time to Rest and The Two-nicorn.
The Two-nicorn
A whimsical, warm-hearted picture book about learning to loves the things that make you unique.
A wonderful gift for new babies, siblings, and anyone who loves a creature that's twice as magical.
The Love We Share
A tender celebration of the quiet, daily love shared between parents and children, and the small moments that mean big things.
Lyrical and warm, this is a book to be read and re-read, at bedtime and beyond.
Time to Rest
A lyrical lullaby-turned-picture book. Time to Rest is the debut collaboration between Jack and Natasha. Inspired by the rhythms of settling small children at the end of a long, bright day.
Poetic, gentle, and quietly beautiful. this is the book that started it all.
