I have always loved reading and I studied English at university just so that I could read a bit more. Next I found my way into secondary teaching and discovered that I loved it too: I got to read more books, show off and hang out with very funny teenagers. What a great job!

Teaching English also encouraged me to write. Soon I had planned and started lots of different stories, but they were all abandoned and shoved to the back of a drawer. Then, one day, the plot for Flirty Dancing came together; Bea’s story was so alive it was like a film running in my head and I knew it was a story I would finish.

Over the next few years, various exciting events distracted me from Flirty Dancing: I got married, travelled the world, was chased by an angry elephant (and a pack of dogs) and I had two babies. While I was sitting on trains, swimming in the Outback and raising two crazy girls, I kept thinking about Bea, and her friends, Betty, Kat and Pearl, until I realised I had planned three more books.

In 2013, after attending the Winchester Writers’ Festival, I plucked up the courage to send Flirty Dancing to Julia Churchill, a brilliant children’s fiction agent at A.M. Heath. With dazzling speed I was then signed by Bloomsbury to write the four books in the series.

A 'roarsome' read

I have been a huge fan of this series since the very beginning, having shared and read the Land of Roar many times, but I have to be honest The Lost Dragon of Roar has been my favourite read. It has been an absolute joy to see how the characters have grown and the camaraderie between Arthur, Win and Rose is just joyous. In this instalment of this 'roartastic' read, an unlikely villain becomes an unbelievably great friend. I cannot recommend this series enough. A perfect read that will drag even the most reluctant of readers from their electronic devices! An absolute belter of a read. Magic. Dragons. Friendship. Villains. Adventure. The Lost Dragon of Roar is a must-read.

Roar books are exceptional

Jenny makes the books so interesting that I finish them in a day, the plot is also fun because one of the villains are now one of the hero's
