Artist and Author

I've loved to draw and make stories since I was a kid, and I've been practicing constantly at it since then. I like to think thousands of hours of practice has made me a lot better, but sometimes I learn the funniest and best things watching how children draw my own characters!


Adventuremice: Of mice and mummies

Adventuremice

This series started when I was painting little pictures of my model ship collection, and thought the pictures looked better when I added mouse sailors. Eventually I asked my friend Philip Reeve if he would work with me to turn these little Adventuremice into a series, and now we have so much fun together imagining what these brave little mice will get up to.

The legend of kevin

Reeve & McIntyre

My first eight books with Philip Reeve combine wild flights of fancy with gripping plots, humour and warmth. Our first four books are stand-alone stories, and our second four make up the series about Kevin, a loveable roly-poly flying pony with a passion for custard cream biscuits. They're published by Oxford University Press.
