Lorraine Orman

Lorraine has worn many hats, most of them relating to children’s books: reader, librarian, parent, book reviewer, book promoter, and lastly, author. Having written short stories as a hobby for most of her life, she gave up full-time library work a few years ago to concentrate on writing children’s novels. Her first novel, Cross Tides, launched her career as a writer and her other books include teenage novels, historical books and junior fiction. She also reviews children’s books for Magpies magazine.
