Philip Reeve grew up in Brighton. He has been writing stories since he was five years old,but the first one to be published was Mortal Engines which won the Nestle Smarties BookPrize and Blue Peter Book Award, and was made into a blockbuster film. 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.
Reeve and McIntyre are a classic team * Times * Superbly silly and highly endearing, the first book in Reeve and McIntyre's series of rodent adventures sees plucky young Pedro determined to prove he can join the titular band of mighty mice * Waterstones 'Perfect Paperbacks' * The first of a perfect full colour adventure series for younger readers . . . young readers will be desperate for the next instalment * LoveReading4Kids * It follows in the footsteps of other Reeve and McIntyre books with its pacy story, brilliant illustrations (in full colour) and its immersive nature. Fun and heart-warming, with just the right level of perilous adventure for the young reader, this series is sure to be a winner * BookTrust * It's a book to inspire (day-)dreams and great ambition. A small book . . . with a big heart * Books for Topics * A fun-packed delight * Telegraph, praise for Reeve & McIntyre * As the story dashes along so, too, do the illustrations, which are a delight on every page * Guardian, praise for Reeve & McIntyre * A delightfully told, beautiful tale * Chris Riddell, praise for Reeve & McIntyre *
