Shani Morris is a children’s author, Afrikaans tutor, and a painter (known as Shani Cronjé) who loves turning language learning into an adventure.

She writes bilingual Afrikaans/English stories and study guides that help kids (and teens) fall in love with reading while secretly boosting their marks.

When she isn’t writing about magical journeys through 1950s Europe, Shani is tutoring Afrikaans, dreaming of piano lessons and a grand piano or experimenting with AI art to bring her characters to life.

Shani drifts between Britain, Europe and occasional visits to South Africa, forever shaped by her childhood there.
