The Storylines Trust aims to inspire<br />

Tales and The Tui Street Heroes, two<br />
collections of stories following the<br />
adventuresofagroupofKiwi kids caught<br />
up in slightlyfantasticaladventures, and<br />
the more recent In Our OwnBackyard.<br />
She says she finds that it is not only<br />
about introducing children to reading<br />
but also aboutthe craft of writing.Some<br />
of thechildren Italktoask very insightful<br />
questions about building astory so<br />
it flows.<br />
The lockdown experience provided<br />
both the contextand thetheme for Annes<br />
most recent story. Written for young<br />
adults, In Our Own Backyard uses the<br />
societal divisions experienced during<br />
lockdowntoconnect back to thedivisions<br />
of the 1981 Springbok tour. She says that<br />
John Minto helped ensure the factual<br />
accuracy ofthe story and that the<br />
endorsementsonthe backcover include<br />
apiece by Helen Clark.<br />
