Author Bio
Mandy Foot is a self-proclaimed animal nut and horse lover and works in a studio also occupied by two sheepdogs, Cody and Mav, and a cat affectionately known as Kung Fu Maow Maow. She completed a Bachelor of Design specialising in Illustration at the University of SA in 1992. For the last 15 years, she has particularly relished the work produced for the Adelaide Zoo Education Service which has given her the opportunity to draw just about every animal you can think of. THE WHEELS ON THE BUS is Mandy s third book for children.
