Jenny Wagner lives with her husband, their dog and three lazy cats in a small Queensland farmhouse that looks like a witch’s cottage. The garden is full of possums, lizards, goannas, frogs, scrub turkeys and other birds. Sometimes a couple of wallabies come to visit, too.
As well as her best-selling novels featuring the nimbin, Jenny Wagner has also written several very successful children’s picture books.
The Bunyip of Berkeley’s Creek and John Brown, Rose and the Midnight Cat both won the Children’s Book Council of Australia Book of the Year Ward (Picture Books) and are widely considered to be classics.
