Whatever happened to Australian author Robin Klein? She hasn't written a book for ages.

McGruff

From the site below: "More recently, her stories about the Melling sisters have also been highly acclaimed: All in the Blue Unclouded Weather was winner of the 1992 NSW Premier's Award for Literature (Children's Books) and its sequel, Dresses of Red and Gold, has also received much attention. Robin was awarded the Dromkeen Medal for her significant contribution to the appreciation and development of children's literature in Australia. She lives in the hills near Melbourne (in a cottage very much like Avian Cottage in The Listmaker) where she writes full time." Profile was last updated on 16 July 2003. http://www.penguin.com.au/authors/author-author-profile.cfm?AuthorId=0000001022 I found a more recent title, 'Sky in Silver Lace' from 1996, about the Melling sisters, at Amazon.com Aug 07 03, 11:03 AM
