About the Author

Millie lives in Sydney, Australia, with her husband and two babies, one of whom is very hairy (but that’s okay because he’s a dog). Millie has loved books her whole life. Her lifelong ambition is to accumulate enough books to justify having a home library like the one in Beauty and the Beast. Outside of writing, Millie’s professional background is in child psychology. She loves to write silly stories that she hopes will elicit big belly laughs from her readers!
