While playing one day, the three of them accidentally wander away from the park through a gate that was accidentally left open to find themselves deep in the grounds surrounding the park. This is where her adventure begins. Read how Penny-Petal and her friends survive the wilderness.

My name is Rhonda Kathleen Farrell, and I was born in Western Australia in a pristine town on the coast called Geraldton in 1953. I grew up on a farm seventy kilometers east of Geraldton with my two sisters and one brother. My childhood years were lots of fun. Later I married a wheat farmer and had two children. We sold our farm in 1987 and moved to Geraldton to live. Now I have three grandchildren, for whom I make up bedtimes stories. They have enjoyed them over the years, so I decided to put pen to paper and write my stories for other children to enjoy.
