Author · 3 books
Julie Nickerson was born in Melbourne, Australia. She liked to make her own books when she was young, but didn’t consider a career in writing and became a medical scientist instead. She later spent many years overseas where she had a variety of jobs, none of which involved science or writing. When she moved back to Australia, she started writing stories for her children and finally realised that working with words was what she really wanted to do. Julie’s first book, Pippa’s perfect ponytail, was released in Penguin’s Aussie Nibbles series in 2009. This has been followed by Pippa the perfect flower girl (2011) and Pippa's perfect picnic (2013).
