Katie has been writing non-fiction children's books for almost half her life and loves questioning the world from a child's point of view. She's developed some of Usborne's bestselling series, including the See Inside books and Lift-the-flap Questions & Answers.

When she's not writing, she likes drinking coffee, walking on the moors and playing competitive board games with her children.,

Lara has been learning how to grow a book since 2016, following a degree in English and Italian at Oxford and teaching jobs in Italy and Myanmar.

From explaining how economics works, to inventing boredom-busting activities, to telling a good dragon yarn, she's enjoyed every minute of the job.,

I am a children's book illustrator living in Worthing with my lovely boyfriend and kitten. I absolutely love what I do and especially love the beginning of projects when i can let my imagination go and create the characters and the worlds they live in. I have been lucky enough to work in the word of children's publishing for the last 6 years and have had a lot of fun meeting all the talented writers, designers and editors who I get to work with.
