Toppsta - Childrens Books – Reviews

Susannah Lloyd is the author of Oh Monty, illustrated by Nici Gregory, Here Be Dragons, illustrated by Paddy Donnelly, This Book Can Read Your Mind, illustrated by Jacob Grant, and The Terribly Friendly Fox, illustrated by Ellie Snowdon.

Her favourite food is trifle and her  favourite words are ‘in cahoots’ and ‘hullabaloo’.

She wrote her first ever picture book when she was five, on her kitchen table, with the help of a large pot of felt tip pens and a stapler. It was about a fox, a wolf, a crow and a stolen balloon. It had a very mysterious ending.  

Her books are inspired by old black and white movies, dusty stuffed animals in museums and all things small in the world.
