After many years working as an editor in children's publishing, Samone Amba is thrilled to debut her middle-grade fiction series, The Good Times of Pelican Rise. The idea for this series came to Samone while she was shelving books in the middle-grade section of Beaumaris Library. Her creative licence wants to add that a book fell on her head, like Henny Penny's acorn or Isaac Newton's apple, but that is simply untrue. Samone is now a pre-service early learning and primary school teacher and will one day be teaching middle grade as well as writing it!
