Truly Tan: Volume 1

Jen grew up in a small wheatbelt town in the Wimmera. She was a devoted fan of Enid Blyton, in particular the Famous Five. In fact, when she was ten, Jen had her own Secret Spy club. Her bestselling Truly Tan series is based on her experiences in that club (which involved swearing an oath of secrecy, keeping notes on the next door neighbours, sleeping in an old caravan on her friend's farm... and eating lots of chocolate cake).
