Author Description

Ten-year-old Milly had always dreamed of living in the country and owning all sorts of animals. So when her parents buy a piece of land and move their six children into a ninety-year-old barn, Milly can't believe her luck. But she never imagined that living the simple life would include mucking out a filthy water tank, gathering endless supplies of firewood, clearing the land, and rescuing animals in a 'hundred year' storm. Nor did she expect to hear deep groanings in the night... Where Lions Roar at Night is a truly wonderful story that will be loved by all ages. It has everything - animals, family drama, exciting adventures, pioneering spirit, disaster, triumph, laughter and tears, and a wonderful New Zealand flavour. A must-read - Cynthia Hancox, Homeschooling mother I wish I was there to go on all the adventures like camping out by the river, canoeing in the floods and exploring Narnia - Jordan, 11 I absolutely loved it I want my very own copy. I hope there will be a sequel because I can't wait to read it - Rebekah, age 9
