As you browse our website you will be informed of the stock status of particular titles. If you are unsure what the status means, an explanation will pop up when your mouse cursor moves over it.

Please note:
Individual titles stock status is updated three times a week so reports are normally accurate.

From time to time however we can have multiple orders come in between website updates so status reports for a short period of time may be inaccurate, which means a title listed as "In Stock" may need to go to backorder.

Meg McKinlay grew up in Bendigo, Victoria, in a book-loving, TV- and car-free household. A poet as well as a children's writer, Meg developed an affinity with the Japanese language after going on an exchange year in high school, and went on to complete a PhD in Japanese Literature. Along the way, she worked a variety of jobs including swim instructor, tour guide, translator and teacher. These days, she lives with her family near the ocean in Fremantle, Western Australia, and is an Honorary Research Associate at the University of Western Australia, where she has taught Australian Literature, Japanese, and Creative Writing. Meg divides her time between teaching and writing, a balance that swings wildly between chaos and calm. She is always busy cooking up more books and you can visit her on the web at www.megmckinlay.com
