Hello and welcome to the website dedicated to the children's author Henrietta Branford. Sadly Henrietta died in 1999, but she left us with a treasure box of good stories to read.
The site is still under construction, so none of the links work at the moment. In the meantime you might like to search out some of her books, listed below. Some are out of print. However, you will certainly be able to find most of them in libraries and book shops and with online book sellers.
You may be interested too in the Branford Boase Award (BBA) which commemorates Henrietta and one of her editors, Wendy Boase, and in the Henrietta Branford Writing Competition (HBWC), a writing competition for young people 18 years of age and younger. Follow the links to find out more.
