She studied law at university and then worked in magazine journalism; it was during this time that she started to draw again After a lifetime of doodling in the sidelines, Nadia decided to pay some attention to drawing and in 2007 was accepted onto an MA course in Children's Book Illustration at Anglia Ruskin University, Cambridge. Her debut book GOOD LITTLE WOLF received a mention in the Bologna Ragazzi Opera Prima Award, among many other honours. Nadia lives in London.
This lovely picture book about friendship is full of character and humour.
