About the Author

I love children; as mother to seven children I suppose that is fairly obvious. For the last twenty-three years my life has very much been centred round children. Additionally, I now work in a play group and have loved spending time with other people's gorgeous children. One of my favourite things as a Mum of a young child was to sit and read stories with them; it was such a lovely cosy time. I studied Art on the Foundation course at Medway College of Art and Design; then went on to study Graphic Design at Canterbury Art College (now UCA). I am a freelance illustrator; hand painting china and illustrating books, as well as taking on one-off commissions. It has been a delight illustrating Debbie's book. Entering into a child's view of the world is always my favourite thing!
