I studied art at Hornsey School of Art and started my career as an in-house illustrator with BBC Children's Television. As I use big and bold pictures in my art, lots of young children, and older TV producers, liked my style and I still have some commissions for children's programmes. Now a freelance illustrator and author, I particularly enjoy craftwork and a lot of my books are craft activity books for children. For b small, I have written and illustrated all the books in the Seasonal Activity and Seasonal Fun series, the Five Idea series, the Free Time series, Let's Pretend, Felt Pictures and, more recently, the Pocket Money series, the Make & Colour series as well as the Make Your Own and Make Your Own Theatre series. I have also illustrated the Bilingual First Books, the Lucy Cat series and the First Language with Supercat series. A few years ago I started illustrating picture books by sewing the illustrations using a mixture of felt and other fabric, mostly recycled. These picture books are mainly published by Barefoot Books and I have recently done an advertising campaign for a US pharmaceutical company using the same technique which involved animation.I live in North London and have three children.
