With a string of awards and accolades, including the Prime Minister’s Award for Children’s Literature, Wendy Orr has written over 40 books for children, teenagers and adults and been published in 29 languages.  She has appeared on some of the biggest conference stages and wrote the first Australian children’s book to be adapted for a Hollywood feature film – Nim’s Island, starring Jodie Foster, who was passionate about the book because it had turned her son into a reader.

Wendy’s latest book Honey and the Valley of Horses is a warm and wonderful adventure with a touch of fantasy. Honey and her family seek the quiet comfort of a magical valley so they can escape the troubles of the wide world. A rich and enchanting adventure full of wonder, resilience and hope
