Hi, I started writing in 2009 and just a few months after, I had signed my first book contract with Cassava Republic Press. My bi-cultural identity weaves through the realistic-fiction picture books I create for my primary-aged readers. I love meeting my readers and getting first hand feedback on how they relate to my books.

Books so far:
1. A FUN ABC (2016) also re-titled, A VISIT TO GRANDAD (2019) in the USA for ages 3-7
2. SNOWY JOY my first chapter (illustrated) book (2019) for ages 8 and above

Working on:
1. A BOUNCY 123 (2020) for ages 3-7

MORE ABOUT ME:
Well, I was born at St Mary's Hospital, Paddington - London in the 60s but lived and started my schooling in Kent. I have fond memories of my first primary school - Rolvenden Primary. I lived happily with my foster mother and her family. Years later, I accompanied my brother and parents to live in Nigeria where I gained two more siblings and a university degree in Linguistics.
On returning to England, I studied to become a teacher in the early 1990s after which I taught at schools within the London Boroughs of Southwark and Redbridge. During this season, my fascination for picture books grew like wildfire and from then onwards, I subconsciously knew I would one day write too!
I would be most delighted to read your reviews. Do tell me what you think of my work; I drink, eat and sleep on your candid reviews :)

Thanks for visiting!
