Tania Norfolk lives in Nelson with her husband and two boys. She loves to write, make things, dance, snuggle up with a good book, and read and make up stories for her boys. Tania has worked in education for many years, both as an English language teacher and in tertiary and public library settings. She is currently working in promotions, organising events and marketing resources for Tasman District Libraries. She is a huge fan of picture books, both old and new, and is thrilled to have collaborated with her brother, illustrator Chris Norfolk, on Grasshopper's Week, her first published children's book.
