Author Biography

SARAH BRENNAN is the author of the best-selling Chinese Calendar Tales, the Dirty Story series and the multi-award-listed Storm Whale, all for primary school-aged children. Born in Tasmania, Australia, she grew up on the slopes of Mount Wellington surrounded by bush animals, goats and exotic poultry. She also played the bagpipes (at the very bottom of the garden) and wrote lots of stories and poems which she kept in a big pink plastic bag. Sarah worked as a lawyer in London before moving to Hong Kong in 1998, when she showed her plastic bag to a publisher and her first book was born. Sarah has a French husband and two grown-up daughters, and divides her time between France, Hong Kong and Australia, touring schools all around the world.
