Author and poet John Dougherty has been writing children’s books for over twenty years. His work ranges from the sublime to the ridiculous, including the surreal Stinkbomb and Ketchup-Face series, and the hilariously zany There’s a Pig Up My Nose. His beautiful, poignant picture book The Hare-Shaped Hole has won multiple awards. A former teacher, John is a passionate advocate for both public libraries and the importance of reading for pleasure. He was one of the first Patrons of Reading in the UK.
