How a little word can make a BIG difference.
Rose grew up in Northumberland, studied Physiology at Oxford and
looked after orphaned orangutans for a bit. She worked in the
charity sector for ten years, writing about issues from renewable
energy, to the safety of workers in Bangladesh. For Usborne, she's
written books about engineering, business, computers and the
environment.
Lucy Fleming has been an avid doodler and bookworm since early
childhood. Drawing always seemed like so much fun, but she never
dreamed it could be a full-time job! She studied art and practiced
drawing every day, and in no time, she went on to graduate from the
University of Lincoln (UK), having specialized in illustration. She
leapt straight into a career as a professional children's book
illustrator and hasn't looked back since. She lives and works in a
small town in England, surrounded by farmland and trees and
accompanied by a little, black cat. When not at her desk, she
prefers nothing more than to be outdoors in the sunshine with a hot
cup of tea.
