Award-winning children's author Donna Vann
I started writing stories at age eight and am still going strong! At the moment I'm working on poems, picture books and some novels which are laugh-out-loud funny.
When I'm not writing, you might find me cycling down to the sea to pick up a few more stones or shells for my collection. There's something peaceful about these ancient pieces of the earth's crust - they will be here long after we're gone.
Or perhaps I'll be taking a hike, hanging out with family and friends, or reading. I might be visiting a school, library or scout group to encourage new writers.
I am so excited about winning a book award!!
GALACTIC DOG! has won The Wishing Shelf

"A teleporting dog, disasters and cat pee, all the ingredients of a fun adventure!" Emma Finlayson-Palmer, author of Autumn Moonbeam
" A funny book - I loved how you couldn't predict what would happen next." Jack, age 7 1/2
"This book made me laugh out loud at bedtime and I got told off for reading too late. Totally worth it!" Sophie, age 7
