Talking Aussie Books with Katrina Nannestad

Katrina Nannestad is an award-winning children's author based in regional Victoria whose works include "The Girl Who Brought Mischief", "The Girl, The Dog and The Writer" series, "The Olive of Grove" series, the "Red Dirt" series and more. Her latest book, "We Are Wolves" was released at the end of October 2020 by HarperCollins. A remarkable, utterly exquisite read that had me laughing and crying as I followed the Wolf children on their journey of survival at the end of WWII. Aimed at primary school readers, but equally readable by older children as well as adults, this is a book that sensitively and beautifully explores the devastation of war on families and children in particular.
