Lionel and Me

Award-winning Corinne Fenton is a writer with a passion for picture books that warm the heart. To date, all her picture books have featured an animal hero. For those who know Corinne, her affinity with animal characters is no random choice. Corinne has rescued so many strays over the years that she now never leaves the house without a pet lead. When Corinne is not wearing her author hat, she has spent time as the Assistant Regional Advisor for the Society of Children’s Book Writers and Illustrators in Australia and as a judge for the Dorothea Mackellar poetry competition. But it’s writing that is her passion.
