Author Bio

Katie Abey is an illustrator who lives in a teeny hobbit-like house in Derbyshire with a cat, a hedgehog, a child and a husband. Her work often features animals, and she likes using a lot of colour: this love of colour is reflected in her brightly coloured studio space and her hair, which frequently changes colour to match its surroundings. Katies ideas and strange sense of humour perfectly suit the field of childrens books. She has two high street shops where she sells her own giftware, stationery and greeting cards, with her illustrations also gracing stores such as WHSmiths, Urban Outfitters, Paperchase and Scribbler. When Katie is not drawing awkward cats and llamas, she enjoys yoga, reading and referring to herself in the third person. @katieabey
