Hi there! I write books for children and young people. FRANKIE FOX, GIRL SPY is my addictive new series for readers 8+. Book 1 is 'Ready, Set, Spy and is out now! Book 2: 'Operation Boy Band' is out in April 2015! I also write the bestselling 'Ella and Olivia' series for young readers. I have also written historical fiction for middle readers - 'My Australian Story: Escape from Cockatoo Island'. As well as writing a bunch of other non-fiction and activity books, I keep busy as a high school English teacher in Sydney. I always have a huge pile of books on my bedside table - what about you?
