This series is GROWING!! I couldn’t believe when I was approached to illustrate Peppa’s Perfect Day, this was going to be Peppa Pig’s first appearance in a Little Golden Book! It felt like an enormous responsibility! The Peppa Pig team were thrilled with my samples and since then I’ve illustrated 8 books in this fantastic series!

I love building on Peppa’s world with new details and never before seen scenes and adventures!

The latest Thankful Fall Fun! will be released July 2024.

‘An empowering and powerful picture book, published in association with The Little Princess Trust.

Inspired by a true story, SuperDaisy tells the tale of a little girl undergoing cancer treatment. Told in rhyme, Daisy lets her imagination run wild as she dresses up in fancy dress, coming to the rescue in different and exciting scenarios. In her superhero disguise, Daisy is able to shake off her worries about being unwell and embrace a freer world - and become the superhero that she really is.

Gently and sympathetically told, this is an inspiring story perfect for pre-schoolers encountering illness for the first time.

Established in 2006, The Little Princess Trust has donated over 8,000 wigs to child cancer sufferers and raised over £5 million for child cancer research.
