Amanda Bolt Author

Amanda Bolt was born in Kent in 1970 and developed a love for reading early in her childhood. Having raised three children of her own and now a nanna to four grandchildren, story time remains a big part of her life. Her grandchildren refer to her affectionately as 'Nanna Stormbook' due to their love of 'Is it thunder, I wonder?' Amanda has had extensive experience working with pre-school and primary school children and would often use props during story time to help develop the children's own interest in books and imagination. She achieved a first-class honours degree in Occupational Therapy at the age of forty-two and continues to work in this field today. Writing for and reading to children continues to be a passion for her and she is currently working on several more titles.
