If it had been available to me when I was twelve it would have transformed it entirely -- Laurence Inman * The School Reading List * Author InformationClaire Philip is an experienced children's editor and writer based in the Essex countryside. She loves writing nonfiction books to ignite a sense of wonder in children, and has worked on hundreds of titles over the last ten years. Her favourite topics are the natural world, science, history. Painting was Isabel Muñoz's favourite game as a child and, as she grew, became her favourite hobby. When the time came it was only natural for Isabel to go on to study Fine Arts at the University Complutense of Madrid, Spain. Isabel's shelves have always been filled with beautifully illustrated books, and she loves to spend many hours carefully studying their magic. Today, after a lot of hard work and lots of full sketchbooks, Isabel is proud to call Illustration her dream job. Tab Content 6Author Website:Countries AvailableAll regions |
