Morgei asked Sally Hepworth:

After loving Mother in Law I was excited to read more of your books. I just finished the Family Next Door. Loved it as well. Just curious as an Australian writer why it’s written in US English? Diaper, Mom, neighbor etc. it’s not a big deal, but I love Australian books, so it sparked my curiosity.

Sally Hepworth Hi there! Thanks for your question. It was actually written in Australian English but my publisher in the U.S. made some changes to help readers follow. The Australian version is in AU English.
