It's a story of a mythical leopard who sings the world into being, illustrated with gorgeous art of the real-life snow leopard, a desperately endangered species. We were hooked!

Her art ranges from the brilliantly-observed realism of works like The Ice Bear and the White Fox, to whimsical fairytales straight from a child's imagination.

In 2017 she collaborated with nature writer and poet Robert Macfarlane to produce The Lost Words, a large-format poetry book dedicated to words from the natural world which were removed from the Oxford Illustrated Children's Dictionary: acorn, dandelion, otter, and many others.
Her most recent book is a reissue of the 2015 Queen of the Sky, a real-life story about her friend rescuing and nursing an injured peregrine falcon in the Welsh countryside.
We look forward to more gorgeous stories woven by this talented craftswoman!
