Author Information

Amber currently resides in the United States with her husband and two children. Gavin Scott was fascinated by the natural world from an early age and spent much of his childhood drawing and painting animals and birds. He later studied BA Natural History Illustration at Bournemouth Arts University. His style gradually evolved from scientific into children’s picture books. He now lives in Somerset, England, with his wife and their growing family.
