'Nette Hilton is a legend of Australian children's literature and a vibrant character herself. Her work spans picture books, series fiction, non-fiction and novels for children and adults. She writes across genres and conjures deep emotion and understanding in her contemporary classic children's novel The Web; humour and wisdom in evergreen favourite picture book A Proper Little Lady and her new Princess Peony series; simpatico, enjoyment and delight from her expertly crafted voice and dialogue and exuberant fun from her body of work. Her writing brims with heart and soul.' (Introduction)
