Author Information

Hilary McKay is a critically acclaimed author who has won many awards, including the Guardian Children's Fiction Prize for her first novel, The Exiles, and the Whitbread (now the Costa) Award for Saffy's Angel. Hilary studied Botany and Zoology at the University of St Andrews, and worked as a biochemist before the draw of the pen became too strong and she decided to become a full-time writer. Sarah Gibb studied at Saint Martin's School of Art (now Central Saint Martins) before completing her MA in Illustration at Brighton College of Art. After landing regular spots in the Telegraph and Elle magazine, Sarah went on to illustrate Sue Townsend's Adrian Mole series, many classic children's fairy tales and even the Harrods Christmas window display.
