Her newspaper work included editing a children’s page, and her fiction found a wide audience through its portrayal of family life and the Australian bush. The books reflect the outlook of their period as well as their author’s storytelling abilities. Her Gippsland upbringing forms the local starting point of a substantial literary career.
