Jennifer Claessen

Jennifer was born in Reading so, of course, grew up a book worm. She is the author of the Month of Magic series.

She studied literature and theatre at at least five universities. As teacher and theatre-maker, Jennifer loves storie and leads interactive drama-based workshops. She is currently Writer in Residence at Abney Park, a cemetery in North East London, where she works with Year 5 students on telling their own stories. Jennifer has two small feral children and is raising them to love reading, travel and ice cream just like her. You can find her whizzing to drama and creative writing workshops on her yellow bike.
