Author Information

"Hello, I'm Jenny Miriam, an Illustator based in the wonderfully creative city of Bristol, UK. Growing up in the mysterious and magical county of Cornwall, I found true joy and artistic inspiration in the nature that surrounded me. From peering at strange sealife in rockpools, to gazing at the beautiful wildflowers that grew from seeds carried across the Mediterranean. From this inspired beginning, I went on to study art and design, graduating with a BA (Hons) in Graphic & Packaging design, and then an MA in Multimedia. This led to my career working as a digital and print designer for 18 years, both in-house and freelance. During my time as a designer I always felt most at home with illustrative work. Now, getting cosy and illustrating with painty textures and Procreate on the iPad is my cup of tea, followed by many, many more cups of tea! I also love going undercover in sunglasses (sssh!) and people watching, japanese kawaii, retro children's books and illustration, miniatures, kitschness, bric-a-brac shops, vintage ceramics and jewellery, hand-made things, doing Reiki, and meditating. I still enjoy nature and animals. And peering in rockpools. Just, nowadays, alongside my three children and their dad! Cottage Door Press is an independent publisher of high-quality children's books. Our books are designed to spark curiosity in the littlest readers and fan the flames of lifelong learning. We understand children deserve our respect. That's why we always select artwork and stories that encourage caregivers to ""read up"" to their little ones--exploring interests together, learning together, and giving their young minds room to grow. We also believe in creating stories that reflect the boundless possibilities of all children. We hope to create books that inspire little ones to connect, encourage them to dream, give them cause to celebrate, and allow them to see themselves beautifully reflected in the stories they read. To bring these beautiful stories to life, our diverse and talented staff collaborates with authors and illustrators from all backgrounds and nationalities. We have also partnered with multicultural brands and literacy organizations to make sure our books reflect and reach as many little ones as possible."
