Jane Begley is an author, a mother and a grandmother. She lives close to the sea and countryside and loves to be outside and close to nature. Most of her inspiration comes from nature and the natural world. Her grandchildren are also a source of her inspiration and she loves to write stories which will inspire children and help them be aware of themselves and the world. Her books offer information about nature to encourage children to take a look around at the world and wonder at how it came to be here. They often have adventure and humour. They look at different situations which children may encounter as they grow up.
