Autorenporträt
Arlene is a New Zealand born Australian. Her two adult children, their life partners and two grandchildren add a joyful narrative to her life. Arlene's first full time employment involved caring for visually-impaired children. An early childhood favourite was a book called "The Nine Friendly Dogs" by Felix Sutton because through this story she experienced the faithful relationship potential between dog and man. Both of these factors have influenced the writing of her debut book entitled "Fred The Book Who Didn't Want To Be Read."
