LUCY DILLAMORE

Lucy has always loved drawing. She had a very happy childhood making up stories with her sister Rachael and her aunt Rita. While studying for her degree in Illustration at Norwich University, Lucy decided to become a children's book illustrator. A soon as she had graduated, she enrolled on the MA course in Children's Illustration at the Cambridge School of Art. Lucy's partner Richard had a very cute dog called Nipper, who inspired her to write this story about the bond of love between a dog and its owner. Lucy currently lives in Lincolnshire, England. She can usually be found in her studio with a cup of tea in one hand and a paintbrush in the other.
