Lenny works with publishers worldwide, from her studio in Sydney, Australia.
Pen Pals Forever, a series of four books for beginner readers 5+, is all about friendship and using your imagination. Polly and Jez are as close as two friends can be. Two friends that have never met, that is.
Follow Jez and Polly’s adventures on a trip around Australia, living on a farm, and travelling back in time to see what life was like before computers and microwave popcorn. There might even be a mermaid or two.
“The Pen Pals Forever series is a gorgeous set of books to share with the early reader in your life, sure to invoke lots of giggles, discussions and original ideas. It really is lovely to see the concept of postcards and handwritten letters sneaking back into stories alongside such strong, likeable characters that feel so real they sneak in to find a comfy little corner in your heart.”
