About the Author

Annette Cooper holds both an Arts Degree in English and a Science Degree in Zoology and Botany from Melbourne University. These contrasting areas of study have enabled her to approach the world from different perspectives, creating innovative contexts for learning. Her love of the natural world saw her employed as a researcher in both the ABC and BBC's Natural History Units. Annette enjoys the innocence, escapism, (deceptive) simplicity and sheer fun of children's books. She currently lives in Melbourne, Australia.
