Jenny Valentine

Jenny Valentine worked in a wholefood shop in Primrose Hill for fifteen years where she met many extraordinary people and sold more organic loaves than there are words in her first novel. She studied English Literature at Goldsmiths College, which almost put her off reading but not quite. In 2007, Jenny won the Guardian Prize for Children's Fiction with her debut novel Finding Violet Park. In 2009 Jenny was chosen as a World Book Day contributor and wrote the short story "Ten Stations", which featured some of the characters from Finding Violet Park. Jenny is married to a singer/songwriter and has two children.
