2.23 Big Skies and Loss with Anna Fienberg

Anna Fienberg is the author of many popular and award-winning books for children of all ages. Her well-loved Tashi book series, illustrated by Kim Gamble, have inspired an animated series for television. 

Anna began writing stories when she was only eight years old. She says, 'I've always had a passion for words. I used to collect them, like some people collect stamps. Certain words gave me a special, billionaire feeling, and when uttered, seemed to have a magical effect.' 
She also gets her ideas from her dreams, people she meets, and snatches of overheard conversation.

Anna was once Editor of School Magazine, where she read over a thousand books a year. She wrote plays and stories for the magazine, and then began writing her own stories. She has written picture books, short stories, junior novels, and fiction for young adults.

Picasso and the Greatest Show on Earth is Anna's latest book.
