More About the Author

Natalie Jane Prior was born in November 1963, a momentous month which saw the assassination of President Kennedy, the death of C.S. Lewis, and the first broadcast of Dr Who on British television. She has been writing compulsively since she was a child, and became a full time children's author in 1992. Natalie is the author of numerous books for many ages and has been published in more than twenty countries. Her work includes the picture books Sun and Star, and the internationally successful fantasy series Lily Quench, which has well over half a million copies in print, and which was broadcast on BBC Radio in 2006. Her new series, The Minivers, has recently been published by Penguin in Australia and will be published in the UK by Scholastic in 2010. Natalie lives in Brisbane, Australia, with her husband, young daughter, and two long-haired red miniature dachshunds.
