The Heavenly Hippo Wildlife Park is having a competition for its residents and the winners will receive a gold star! George the Giraffe has the perfect spot on his fence for one, but although he helps his friends win theirs, there is no gold star forthcoming for George. Luckily when the competition is over, Georges friends club together to make him lots of stars to show him how much they appreciate him. So in the end, George has lots of stars!
Alice lives in East Hertfordshire with her two small children who provide lots of inspiration for her work. She writes for children of all ages but is particularly passionate about picture books. Alice is fantastic at events and particularly enjoys visiting schools. Alice is a proactive SCBWI member. Author of: The Black and White Club, Gold Star for George, Bibble and the Bubbles, Robopop, George and the New Craze, Rickety Rocket, Sheep on the Run! and Arlo, Mrs Ogg and the Dinosaur Zoo Kimberley Scott is a professional Illustrator and Designer, working from her home studio in London. Kimberley likes to dip her inken pen in a variety of projects including childrens books, greetings cards, puzzles, stationery and calligraphy. With a fascination for line and a slight obsession with all things inky Kimberley has developed her own quirky yet somewhat traditional illustrative style. She starts all her creations by hand, using a mix of pencil, pen and ink, and then either moves to her trusty Mac or takes to the freedom of watercolours to bring her characters and illustrations to life. Kimberley loves to delve into an imaginative world, with pattern, detail and a slight skewiff essence being key to her work.
