Lenna Kutner has been a resident of Auburndale, MA for many years. She discovered the local dog park when she adopted a Golden Retriever puppy named Geti in 1990. Lenna and Geti soon met lots of other dogs and their owners walking in the park each day. Geti and Murphy became the best of friends.
When Lenna learned the unique history of the park, she knew that Norumbega would make a great setting for a children's story, and began writing "The Magic of Norumbega" for her son Danny. Starring Geti and Murphy, the story evolved into a fun historical fantasy. It took a long time to finish the book, but that's how it all began.
Lenna has a degree in Elementary Education, and a Master's Degree in Public Administration. Most of her professional life was spent in human services, working with kids and with the elderly. Writing has always been Lenna's secret passion. She is currently a volunteer at a neighborhood library where she is surrounded by books and by children who love to read as much as she does.
