The Big Book Adventure

Emily Ford has only ever worked in the world of children’s books, apart from a very early foray into shoe fitting and face painting (she does a great tiger). She’ll write on anything she can find–from notebooks to used envelopes and the backs of old receipts. As a child her handwriting was neat but now it’s almost illegible–only she can read it. Emily lives and works in London.

Award winning children’s author and illustrator Tim Warnes’ first book was published in 1995. Since then, he’s worked on more than eighty books, which have been translated into twenty or more different languages. Tim is married to fellow illustrator, Jane Chapman. They have two boys and work from home in the countryside in southwest England. When he’s not illustrating new books, Tim enjoys birdwatching, sculpting, playing his banjo, reading comic strips - and wearing fancy hats! www.chalkandcheesecomics.com
