Reviews
'I'm not even sure where to start with Mr Snuffles' Birthday; what an utterly beautifully written and stunningly illustrated book. The first day I received the book I dived straight in with Alfie who really enjoyed the story'. From beginning to end you will be captured by a nostalgic feeling. The illustrations remind me of Winnie the Pooh books and others from long ago. The story is funny and heart-warming, one you will love reading to your children at bedtime.' - Cupcake Mumma
Author Information
About the author: Born in Yorkshire in 1985, David Greaves' kindness and generosity of spirit, and his love of travel and adventure led him to make friends around the world with people from all walks of life. The stamina and strength of character demonstrated by David's achievements as an ultra-marathon runner and Iron Man triathlete were also shown by his determination to complete The Homesick Fox, and a considerable number of other stories for children while living with the cruel limitations imposed by Motor Neurone Disease (ALS), diagnosed shortly after David's thirtieth birthday in June 2015. In September 2015 David married the love of his life, Philippa, soon after which they climbed Mt Kilimanjaro together, raising over GBP12,000 for the Motor Neurone Disease Association, then travelled widely in East Africa before settling in Newcastle upon Tyne. As MND progressively deprived David of the use of his hands, and then the power of speech, he finished his collection of children's books using revolutionary computer software which allowed him to communicate by tracking and translating into readable text the movement of his eyes. David Greaves passed away peacefully at home in September 2016. David's wife Philippa and his family intend to honour his outstanding gifts as a children's author by eventually publishing all David's completed works. Emily Wallis is a freelance illustrator based in Wells, Somerset. All of her artwork is traditionally hand-drawn and she usually works with watercolour, pen and pencil. She is a member of the Association of Illustrators and works on all sorts of illustration commissions worldwide.
