Paul Jennings
Paul Jennings is one of Australia’s most successful authors and storytellers. His children’s books have sold over three million copies in Australia alone and won dozens of awards. Kids love Paul’s stories because they’re weird and very funny. “If you can make kids laugh, tell me something that’s more useful than that.”
In 1984 when Paul’s son complained about boring books, he decided to write a story his son would love. The following year, at the age of forty-two, Paul’s first book ‘Unreal’ was published.
More books followed and Paul became a full-time author. He wrote books for kids who didn’t like reading. Books they wanted to read. He wrote funny, interesting and disgusting stories with surprising endings. Kids loved them. In 1990 ‘Round the Twist’, a television series was based on Paul’s stories. It became a top rating children’s program show in over forty countries around the world.
Today Paul is doing what he loves and is happy. He loves classic cars, music and dancing and just like his books has found that everything worked out in the end.
