In her time there, she published and nurtured numerous Greenaway winners, and edited and wrote groundbreaking series such as The Ologies, which have sold over 19 million-copies worldwide. Today she writes and runs her own small press from her home in Surrey.Mike Jolley studied Graphic Design and Illustration before going on to work for Templar for 30 years, as a designer and then art director. He had a three-year 'break' working in an advertising agency in Amsterdam, but soon returned home to both the UK and to Templar. He most enjoys working on projects with Amanda, and with the amazing host of talented illustrators he has been lucky enough to work with over the years. He is currently semi-retired and lives on the Sussex Downs overlooking the sea.
