Author Page for Carol Ann Martin
Originally from England, I have worked as a children’s book author and editor in Australia for over thirty-five years. Since 1990, I have lived with my jazz musician husband in the small, but very vibrant, town of Cygnet in southern Tasmania and freelanced as a writer, mainly for Scholastic and Hardy Grant Egmont. My published works have included picture books, early readers, middle grade and YA novels. I love to connect with kids and enjoy school visits, as well as a weekly story-telling session at our local library. Currently, I’m the Children’s Program Manager for a readers’ and writers’ festival to be held in Tasmania in October. Visit my website https://carol-ann-martin.wixsite.com/home
