The final stages of her working life saw her working Australia-wide. In The Water Bag she recalls stories from her relatively unusual childhood and many varied careers.In many ways, her life has been a series of unique experiences across the vast Australian landscape. Often faced with challenges and tragedy, Jenny's innate ability to value the positives in life and learn from her experiences is reflected in her story telling. She records with delight, humour and compassion many of the colourful characters and experiences which have affected her life.The Water Bag is essentially a series of stories and reflections, roughly following the sequence of Jenny's life. She takes the reader on an entertaining journey across the length and breadth of Australia.
