About me

I have been writing and illustrating picture books for over 25 years, and have a huge love of colour, texture and playfulness in both words and pictures.

My titles include 'Recipe for a Story'. 'Betty and the Yeti' and 'Darkness Slipped In', which was nominated for the Kate Greenaway Medal and was Highly Commended at the British Book Design Awards.

Darkness Slipped In

A playful look at a child's relationship with the dark. Bunny might be frightened buy Daisy isn't scared!

Betty and the Yeti

A touching story of friendship and acceptance in the land of ice and snow.

Recipe for a Story

Cooking up a good story is easy if you have the right ingredients! Break some thoughts into a cup, add some characters, sprinkle with full stops and capital letters, and glaze with happy endings.

Louie and the Monsters

Louie can't stand Monsters, they are annoying in so many ways! Until one day Louie loses his temper and that changes everything.

Bear and Me

A little girl and her teddy bear are so small they can’t swim, fly or climb, but both know things will change and one day they will be big enough to do all the things they can’t do now.

Monsters Don't Cry

By Brett McKee, illustrated by Ella Burfoot. Even little monsters don't always have to be brave, especially when Mummy and Daddy monster are there to make everything all right.
