Author Biography

Abie Longstaff is the eldest of six children and grew up in Australia, Hong Kong and France. She knows all about squabbling, chaos and bossing younger sisters around. So she logically began her career as a barrister. She started writing when her children were born. Her favourite childhood books were Hating Alison Ashley, A Little Princess, Maura's Angel and The Black Stallion and she sneakily reads them again sometimes. Abie lives in Hove with her family. Eve Coy studied animation at Edinburgh Art School and went on to work as an animator and story artist. After having children, Eve completed a masters in Children's Book Illustration at Cambridge School of Art, during which she was twice highly commended in the Pan Macmillan prize. Since graduating, Eve has worked on a number of picture books, including her debut author-illustrated picture book, LOOKING AFTER WILLIAM, which published last year by Andersen Press. She lives in the Cotswolds with her family.
