Natalie has had many different jobs in her life and is now starting out as a published author. It is a complement to her work that she has been teamed with Danny Snell, a long time illustrator much awarded for his varied and impressive work, which includes one of my personal favourites, The Truck Cat. Apparently Danny was a reluctant reader as a child, more drawn to pictures than text. That may explain why his pictures are such vivid storytelling vignettes always extending the text.
