I Spy Treasure!

About the Author

Vikki Marmaras is a children's author with a passion for sustainability. She loves to recycle and reuse, and once furnished her entire house with only second-hand furniture. Originally from the UK, Vikki is lucky enough to call both England and Australia home and spends time at the beach in both countries. She often comes home with a bag full of rubbish which she has picked up from the sand.

Vikki spends most of her free time writing, but also enjoys reading, camping and spending time with friends and family. Captain Snarkle Tooth's Treasure is her first picture book. Vikki can be contacted through her website: www.vikkimarmaras.com and also on Twitter @vikkimbooks and Instagram @vikkimarmarasbooks
