Hi, I’m Jane. I’ve been writing stories for as long as I can remember. When I was seven, I wrote a story about the life of a raindrop. My schoolteacher loved the story and said I would be a writer. She was right, but first I became a primary school teacher, a mother, and then a college lecturer. Now I have written over three hundred stories for children, which have been published in many countries. One of my hobbies is gardening. I plant flowers, then my dog, Poppy, digs them up again!
