Dianne Wolferová majstrovsky spája svoju lásku k histórii s písaním fikcie, často z nezvyčajných perspektív. Jej diela sa ponorili do austrálskych vojnových konfliktov aj do morských hĺbok, objavujúc témy ako je vzťah človeka k prírode a morálne dilemy. Vďaka svojmu jedinečnému štýlu dokáže Wolferová oživiť historické udalosti prostredníctvom dojímavých príbehov, ktoré oslovujú mladých čitateľov. Jej práca často skúma, ako sa jednotlivci a zvieratá orientujú v zložitých obdobiach a ako sa vyrovnávajú s výzvami.
