Ruth Austin

Biography

Ruth Austin got her start in the UK before deciding to exchange rainy London skies for, erm, rainy Seattle skies. Her debut picture book, So Many Cuddles, won a Moonbeam gold medal and was selected as a 2017 Foreword Indies finalist. She writes gift books for grown-ups, too, and the odd stationery product, but children’s books remain her true love. Ruth spends her days having fun with words (hers, yours, anyone’s) and loves nothing more than other people’s crazy new ideas.
