Author Biography
Miriam Latimer studied illustration at the University of the West of England, gaining a first class honours degree in 2003. She says of her work: "I spend a lot of time daydreaming, thinking of ideas - that's the easy bit. It's then calming the ideas down and putting them in a readable format that is the hard part." This is Miriam's third project with Barefoot Books, following The Prince's Bedtime (HB 978-1-84148-549-2: PB 978-18486-105-5) and Shrinking Sam (978-1-84686-038-6).
