About the author

Lesley dreamed of being a writer, but studied law as her mother insisted she had "something to fall back on". Since joining Usborne Publishing, she has written and edited hundreds of books, from funny rhyming stories to an award-winning history book. Nowadays, she is often found recording books, too, in Usborne's very own recording studio.

The ending destroyed me 😂 did not see that coming

The greedy part of human nature

[Anne Patkau · Rating 5 out of 5]

Colorful pictures detail better than words that do make old folk tale fresh. Life is seldom fair.
