Sarah Wynne is from Chester in the northwest of England and lives with her husband, son and their little white ball of chaos, Daisy the dog. She spent over 10 years working as a primary teaching assistant but now writes full-time and provides editorial services to writers of children's fiction. When she's not writing she'll usually be found with her nose in a middle grade book (or researching which book to read next or talking about books!).

Her clients include the BBC, John Lewis, Marks & Spencer, Taschen and Penguin Random House. Laura creates artwork for design and publishing: illustrating packaging, children's picture books and book covers for all ages.
