Welcome to Veronica's World

Meet Veronica and her Friends

Some cows just eat grass. Veronica asks why.

High in the green fields of the Austrian Alps lives Veronica, a thoughtful Swiss Brown cow who has a habit of noticing things other animals miss.

While others rush, Veronica pauses.
While others struggle, Veronica thinks.

And somehow, she often finds the clever solution hiding in plain sight. What began with one curious cow and a very itchy problem has grown into Veronica’s World — a place filled with stories, music, adventures, and a whole farmyard of unforgettable characters.

Here you’ll discover:

    • Beautifully illustrated children’s books
    • Read-along videos and audio stories
    • Songs and music from the farm
    • Activities for parents and teachers
    • News and surprises from Veronica’s World

At the heart of every story is the same gentle idea:

Being thoughtful, curious, and a little different can be a wonderful thing.

So come and meet Veronica, Otto the Horse, Liesel the Calf, Great the Goat, Shaun the Sheep and the rest of the farm.

There’s always something new happening in Veronica’s World.

And this is only the beginning.

My Story

Hello! I’m Jaz.

I write stories about animals who think, wonder, and solve problems in surprising ways.

I have lived in lots of different countries, played drums in a band, and I love animals more than just about anything. If I had ten acres and a thousand animals, I would be very happy (even if it was a bit noisy).

I wrote Veronica’s story because I love animals who surprise us — and because sometimes the best ideas come from wanting to fix a small problem, like an itchy scratch.

I hope Veronica’s story makes you laugh, think, and try your own clever ideas.
