About Tracey Corderoy

Tracey was born and grew up in industrial South Wales and now lives in a hidden valley in Gloucestershire with her husband two children and an ever-increasing menagerie of devilishly-cute-but-sometimes-rather-naughty pets. A trained teacher Tracey has always had a passion for wonderful literature and began writing for children in 2006. Her books for other publishers include The Grunt and The Grouch series about two riotous trolls and numerous picture books including The Little White Owl. Sarah Massini's mum always said it was a blessing how paper and a pencil could keep her quiet and out of mischief for hours. Drawing has been a life-long habit that has seen her through careers in corporate design children's book design and now as an illustrator and illustrating is what she loves doing best. Sarah lives in Sussex with her husband Peter her young son Mathew and her utterly mad terrier Tess who keeps guard as she draws.
