D R HendersonBorn and raised on Yorke Peninsula - the ill-shaped leg that supports Australia - Don Henderson, in cahoots with his siblings and army of cousins, knew few boundaries, and, from an early age, developed a quirky sense of adventure. Don worked as a routabout in woolsheds and as a stock agent before enrolling at The University of Adelaide, where he majored in English Literature. He taught high school English in South Australia, Victoria, Arnhem Land, and Japan. He indulged his passion for writing in various ways, most notably as the founder, editor, and sole scribe of the Tarcoola Times, and, later, as a sports writer for the Whyalla News. After attending a conference where the speaker lamented the lack of high interest books for boys he wrote Half the Battle (2006) and Keepinitreal (2009), published by Scholastic. A third novel, Macbeth, You Idiot! (2009), was published by Penguin. Read More Read Less
