Untwisted is an honest, insightful, funny - a brilliant memoir about
writing and teaching and life from one of Australia's most loved
children's authors.
In the telling of his own tale, children's author and screenwriter Paul
Jennings demonstrates how seemingly small events can combine into a
compelling drama. As if assembling the pieces of a jigsaw puzzle he puts
together fragments, memories and anecdotes to reveal the portrait of a
complex and weathered soul. The accounts of the trials and joys of
turning his stories into episodes of the television program Round The
Twist will be of special interest to the millions of fans of this
series. Untwisted is revealing, moving, and very funny. Paul Jennings
has crafted perhaps his most masterful story yet...the story of his
life.
'A personal invitation into the remarkable head of a quirky genius and
one of Australia's most beloved writers. Achingly honest, full of
writing wisdom and insights for educators. Essential reading.'
