"Teen readers will eat it up." - "Kirkus Reviews", starred review
Sally Gardner grew up in the Inns of Court, in the heart of London, where both her parents were lawyers. Despite being thrown out of several schools and labelled unteachable, she gained a first class degree at a leading London art college, and went on to become a highly successful costume designer. After the birth of twin girls and a boy, she started first to illustrate and then to write books for children. Sally Gardner's first novel I, Coriander, won the Nestle 2005 Gold Award in its category. All her books are extremely popular and she has been called 'an idiosyncratic genius' by the Sunday Times.
