Biographical note

Molly lives in a tiny flat in London with more plants than she really has space for. She is lucky enough to have her dream job in children’s publishing, where she gets to edit, write and spend her time finding words that rhyme. Her favourite things are lazy Sundays, detective stories, and petting other people’s dogs. David Semple was born in the North East of England in the early 70s. After studying illustration, he enjoyed a stint working in the TV and Film industry in London painting latex puppets & prosthetics! Since then, a pencil has never been far from his grasp and he has designed and illustrated characters for an impressive range of clients across the globe. He lives in York with his designer wife Kate, their three children, and Olive the dog.
