Autorenporträt
Jenny Henwood is a full time working mum and has written her first series of children's books, under the title series, The Rainbow Riding School. The series follows the lives and adventures of a wonderful group of ponies and their friends living at the riding school. Growing up Jenny was lucky enough to take riding lessons and that is where her passion for ponies began and where she dreamed one day of owning her own riding school. When she was 7 years old she drew a picture of The Rainbow Riding School, naming all her ponies and making up adventures about them. Even choosing all the door colours and ponies' names from DIY store paint charts! Life, as we all know, marches on and as her teenage years came and went and her studies took over Jenny never did fulfil her dream of owning her own riding school but neither, too, did she ever quite forget it either. It was when her own daughter turned five and she had the opportunity to take some riding lessons that Jenny began to tell her about her Rainbow Riding School and all the adventures that the ponies had there. It was the look of joy as she recounted these gentle tales to her that really ignited in Jenny the passion to write them down. Jenny hopes that her gentle stories are a wonderful way of bringing back the innocence of story telling that she experienced as a child where stories seemed to be full of happy-endings and strong moral guidance. Jenny hopes to raise awareness of four wonderful charities that she has chosen to complement the animals that inspired her. With 50p of every book sale going to the following charities: The Horse Trust (Registered Charity 231748) , The Barn Owl Centre (Registered Charity 10977410), The British Hen Welfare Trust (Registered Charity 1147356) and The Cats Protection League (Registered Charity 203644). Jenny's greatest hope is that you grow to love the ponies and characters of The Rainbow Riding School as much as she does!
