PERHAPS A GIFT VOUCHER FOR MUM?: MOTHER'S DAY
Lou Carter studied medicine for three years then took a PGCE in primary education. Her work as a schoolteacher sparked her love of children's picture books and There Is No Dragon In This Story is her first (of three) picture books with Bloomsbury. Lou lives in Cambridge with her husband and two children. Deborah Allwright has become a star of the picture book world following the publication of the bestselling The Night Pirates. She has been shortlisted for the V&A Illustration Award, and illustrated the hugely successful Don't Read this Book! Deborah works in a studio in Islington, stopping only to attend designer clothes sales, and to do a spot of DJing at music festivals.
