Philip has alsoprovided cartoons and jokes for many books, including Horrible Histories, and written themagical Utterly Dark series. Sarah McIntyre is easy to spot in her pointy glasses and hats. Sometimes she writes anddraws picture books and comics herself, and sometimes she illustrates books for otherpeople, including Giles Andreae, Alan MacDonald, Gillian Rogerson, Anne C ottringer andC laire Freedman. When Philip and Sarah make books together, they both brainstorm the story ideastogether, then Philip writes them and Sarah illustrates them. But occasionally they swaproles for a bit. And they love dressing up.
