Anna daydreams an awful lot and likes to look at trees and believe it or not, she used to mix magic spells in a witch's shop. Maybe that's why she makes up so many stories. Wintertime is her favourite season but she wouldn't want to be stuck there forever because her hair would go frizzy. Anna made a wish once and it came true so now she makes a wish at least twice a year, maybe even more! She does have a real four-leaf clover but she doesn't have a tree house, she has to share her daughter, Isabella's cubby, luckily it's quite big. Anna lives in Melbourne, in a place just like St Ives.
