Lucy Fleming has been an avid doodler and bookworm since early childhood. Drawing always seemed like so much fun, but she never dreamed it could be a full-time job! She studied art and practiced drawing every day, and in no time, went on to graduate from the University of Lincoln (UK) having specialized in illustration. She leapt straight into a career as a professional children s book illustrator and hasn t looked back since. She lives and works in a small town in England surrounded by farmland and trees, accompanied by a little black cat. When not at her desk, she prefers nothing more than to be outdoors in the sunshine with a hot cup of tea.
