Katherine Rundell

Katherine Rundell is the bestselling author of five children’s novels and has won the Costa Children’s Book Award, the Blue Peter Book Award and the Waterstones Children’s Book Prize among many others. Katherine spent her childhood in Zimbabwe and Europe before taking her degree at the University of Oxford and becoming a Fellow of All Souls College. At night she goes climbing, secretly, across the rooftops of Oxford and London. She is also learning, very slowly, to fly a small plane, in the hope it will lead her to adventure.
