Here you go @merelybookish this is the very colourful childrens author Margaret Mahy who wrote over 100 picture books as well as a couple of dozen novels. She was also a librarian and dedicated to growing young readers. She would be the most well know author in NZ because everyone (around my age at least) grew up reading her books.
Jeg Love her books. 1mo
Centique @Jeg Lion in the Meadow is my favourite. Read that to my children thousands of times! 1mo
merelybookish Thanks Paula! She is colourful! 😀 I saw she won lots of prestigious kidlit prizes out of NZ too but I'm not sure she ever cracked North America. 1mo
