About the author

I have worked in children’s publishing for 25 years in magazines and books as a writer and editor, and am now freelance.
I love creating content to inspire children’s imaginations and pique their curiosity about the world through fun puzzles, games, activities, puzzle adventure stories, fiction and non-fiction.
You may see me stepping out in my stripey socks, enjoying walks in nature with my Sheltie dog, Arthur.
