A fabulously funny fairytale romp with an utterly fearless, totally beguiling, very determined and very little heroine.

"Just delightful. Wonderfully original, funny and sweet." Nick Sharratt

She started her working life as a temporary store person dealing in valve components, before moving on to Yellow Pages where she designed layouts for such copy lines as (file under Plumber) "Mr Onion will fix your leak!" A move into the world of book design followed, beginning with school textbooks and moving onto picture books at Walker, before going freelance, illustrating picture book texts, a number of which she has also written. These include Cowboy Baby, which won the Smarties Book Prize Gold Award in the picture book category.
