He is the author of the award-winning DAISY picture books and fiction, as well as the creator of the chart-topping OI! He has also illustrated the popular fiction series The Dragonsitter by Josh Lacey and the space adventure series George’s Secret Key to the Universe by Lucy and Stephen Hawking for slightly older readers.
