About the Author

Jackie French’s writing career spans ten years, 32 wombats, 80 books for kids and adults, eight languages, various awards, assorted ‘Burke’s Backyard’ segments in a variety of disguises, radio shows, newspaper and magazine columns, theories of pest and weed ecology and 27 shredded back doormats. The doormats are the victims of the wombats who require constant appeasement in the form of carrots, rolled oats and wombat nuts, which is one of the reasons for her prolific output: it pays the carrot bills.

Her critically acclaimed book,
Hitler’s Daughter
, won the Children’s Book Council Book of the Year Award for Younger Readers in 2000.

‘It is a mark of French’s genius that she can
weave deep moral issues into an engrossing,
fast moving story.’
Stephen Matthews,
Canberra Times
