About the Author

Rosie Banks is in her late twenties, and grew up in a small village in the South West. She spent her childhood dreaming of magical creatures and faraway places, so it was natural that she grew up to write a series of stories where such dreams came true! Rosie has always been close to her two best friends, and their special relationship provided her with inspiration for the magical trio of Jasmine, Ellie and Summer. As a child, Rosie's ultimate ambition was to ride a unicorn. She hasn't managed that yet, but she does have a pony called Flip, and cute puppies called Moony and Max.
