Episode 34: Dara Read

Dara Read was born in Australia in the 80s and was adopted by her mum and dad who love parties as much as she does. Did we mention that Dara loves parties? She does, especially if she can dance!When Dara met her birth parents and their families, she danced for joy - on the inside! Her latest book, We Love You Hundreds and Thousands is all about foster care, adoption, and growing up in a diverse family. Dara now lives by the beach in Sydney with her family. Her favourite things are cuddles with her kids, being in the ocean and almost anything that sparkles. On the more serious side, Dara is a writer and social justice lawyer. She has worked as a children’s lawyer and youth worker. She has also been a senior ministerial adviser for children who are adopted and in out-of-home care.<br/><br/>Follow along!<br/>Zanni's website <br/>Zanni's instagram<br/>The Sunshine House Writers and Creatives FB Group<br/><br/>This podcast episode is produced by Jen Pitch: @virtualcreatrix
