Illustrator Gemma Correll is one of the few people in the universe who has managed to turn her love of pugs into a lucrative career. She has exhibited all over the world, in China, the US and Europe, and was the recipient of a Young Guns award from the Art Directors Club of New York in 2010. She's a serial punner with a crush on all things cartooney and studied Graphic Design in Norwich. Her favourite colour is turquoise, her star sign is Aquarius and her favourite word Albuquerque, just in case you were wondering. Follow Gemma on Twitter: @gemmacorrell.
A book with chapters titles "Hellcats and Hormones" and "A Quick Herstory Lesson" definitely works for me... frank and funny with line drawings throughout.
The Bookseller (Children's Previews)
This is a book not only designed to inform teenage girls but to make them think and ask questions and it does this brilliantly
