Jenny Morris — Australian Author
Jenny Morris has always enjoyed reading and writing poetry and rhyme, but even more so now as she has grandchildren to delight. Jenny was born on Gibraltar and her British Army father was further posted to Germany and Cyprus, eventually settling back in the UK on the family farm. Nevertheless, we claim her as one of our own Aussie writers as she is married to an Australian, has lived here for forty-four years, thirty-five of them in the NSW bush.
Jenny’s Books
The Thing on Mount Spring by Jenny Morris is a delightful tale; cleverly written, beautifully illustrated and very Australian to boot! May the wayward Turbi find many admirers amongst picture-book lovers of all ages.
My favourite part of the book Oh Dear Dudley by Jenny Morris was when the deer found an
antler. It felt magical, like something special was happening. The book takes you on an
adventure full of different feelings—happy, sad, excited, and hopeful. I would recommend
this book to other kids because it shows us that there is always hope, even when things are
hard. My favourite character is Dudley the Deer because he never gives up, no matter what
happens.
