Book description
Honey is very excited because her mum and dad are coming to stay in
Honeypot Hill for a whole month. When they arrive life becomes a
whirlwind of special treats for Honey and Poppy. But nothing is as
exciting as the mystery of the imprisoned princess and her lost jewels
that they uncover at Cornsilk Castle.
Janey was born in Edinburgh and grew up by the seaside just
outside the city. Janey published the first two Princess Poppy books
herself (with her own illustrations) and the books were so popular
that Random House Children's Books soon bought the series and
re-packaged the books. The series is now going from strength to
strength, including picture books, novels for young readers, activity
books and sumptuous gift books.
Janey read English at Edinburgh University specializing in the
Victorian novel. Following this she became a teacher - a career that
she absolutely adored - and then, with her husband, set up The
Jelly Club, which has become an extremely successful chain of
children's activity centres in Scotland. She still very much enjoys
visiting schools and talking to children to find out what they like
doing and what makes them laugh. Janey and her husband live in
Edinburgh with their three sons.
