The second book in the imaginative and funny Aunt Severe series.
Nick Garlick is a translator and copywriter, who first had a
science fiction novel published many years ago. Aunt Severe and the
Dragons, his first children's book, was published in 2010. It is
soon to be followed by Aunt Severe and the Toy Thieves. He has
lived in the Netherlands since 1990.
Nick Maland trained in English and drama, but rapidly changed to
set design, and then to illustration for the Guardian, the Observer
and the Independent before deciding to do book illustration. His
first book was shortlisted for the Mother Goose Award for Best
Newcomer. He is married, has two children and lives in London.
