Biographical note
Tom Percival writes and illustrates all sorts of children's books. He has produced cover illustrations for the Skulduggery Pleasant series, written and illustrated the Little Legends and the Dream Team series, as well as twelve picture books, including the Carnegie-nominated Ruby's Worry, Perfectly Norman and Ravi's Roar. He is also the author of picture books Goat's Coat and Dream Big, Little Mole! illustrated by Christine Pym, and created the animation Goodbye Rainclouds for Children in Need to celebrate unsung heroes. He lives in Gloucestershire with his partner and their two children.
Tom has been drawing since he's been able to hold a pencil, and making up stories for as long as he can remember, in fact, probably longer, especially as his memory is not what it once was. Basically, he's been making things up his whole life and he's not about to stop any time soon.
