"The Family with Two Front Doors" was based on my grandmother's childhood so you might enjoy "52 Mondays" based on my own childhood. My most recent book is "The Boy Who Stepped Through Time" and I have a new book coming out in 2023 called "A Message Through Time."(less)

Off to print!

I can't believe it - after five years of gestation, my newest baby, 'The Family with Two Front Doors' is off to the printer. Little did I realise when I sat down down to write a story based on my grandmother's childhood in Lublin, Poland, in the 1920s, that it would take me four years to research and write (including a trip to Poland), and then another year of illustrating and editing before it wa Read more of this blog post »

Although not old enough to have personal memories of the era, I loved the movie, ‘The Dish’, which explored Australia’s role in the moon landing. I figured this novel would be much the same and I w" Read more of this review »

"This should have made it to the 2026 shortlist instead of the stupid Paperbark Tree Committee nonsense.

There are spoilers in this review because I figure no primary school child is actually on goodreads and if they are, I wave a hearty hello! to you." Read more of this review »

Always love to read memoirs by other authors about their historical research. Well written and gripping. Listened on audio and it was great to hear the author read her own work.

Listened on audio, which probably wasn't the best medium. A book with photos to illustrate the jewels would have been more rewarding. Intriguing story and it would have been 4 stars but I felt as if it started to go on for too long. ...more
