Claire Watts (Author)
Claire Watts has written over fifty illustrated nonfiction children's books on topics as diverse as dinosaurs, model-making, Vikings, superheroes, deserts and maths. She loves to take big ideas and distil them so that they're understandable to a child audience. For every fact you include, you have to ask yourself, 'Will a child understand this?' 'Do I need to go back a step and explain?' When she is not writing or doing writing-related things, Claire works as a learning assistant and librarian in a primary school near her home in south-west Scotland.
