About the Author

Philip grew up just around the corner from Mr McGregor's garden, a mile or so down the valley from Mrs Tiggywinkle's place, and only a short row from Owl Island. A childhood spent growing up in the English Lake District means that children's literature is in his blood. Philip now lives in Queensland, Australia with his family, and their rescue cat, Mowgli. He loves anthropomorphism and drinks way too much Yorkshire Tea. Philip's first picture book, Mopoke, was published in 2017.
