I have written and illustrated over 200 books for children in the primary/elementary age groups, and illustrated over 70 more for other authors, including Michael Morpurgo, Michael Rosen and Rose Impey. Many of the books I’ve written are series books. I try to make the writing easy for struggling readers, but with high story content, fun and excitement for more confident readers.
