about the author

Janette studied fine arts and has spent many years exhibiting her paintings throughout Australia and Indonesia. She has three children and loves gardening, collecting art, reading, playing ukulele, listening to French pop music and writing. Dividing her time between the north of Australia and a country town 4000 kilometres south means she can enjoy summer all year round. At home in the south, Janette lives upstairs in a two-storey former pub which is filled with art and interesting objects collected over many years. Downstairs is workspace with her picture framing business and art supplies shop which opens onto the street.

about the book

When Margot first visits her grandparent’s farm, she and her dog Milligan aren’t that keen on venturing out to meet all the animals. Instead, they play together in the safety of the garden, watching the animals from behind the fence. However, this only makes the newcomers more interesting for the farm animals and they want to meet these strangers as soon as possible!

Still Margot and Milligan aren’t quite ready to get up close. When Pa finally coaxes Margot out onto the farm, she asks him a stream of questions. Eventually, she discovers that it’s not only cats who are inquisitive creatures…there’s a much bigger animal which is far more curious!
