Author description

Highly-respected poet Tony Mitton has written many titles for children, including the picture books illustrated by Guy Parker-Rees: 'Bumpus Jumpus Dinosaurumpus!', 'Down by the Cool of the Pool', 'Spookyrumpus' (winner of the Sheffield Book Prize, the Dundee Book Award and the Portsmouth Book Award) and 'Jolly Olly Octopus'. Tony spends his time writing, giving poetry performances and visiting primary schools. Tony lives in Cambridge. Mandy Sutcliffe was born in Stockport and loved drawing from an early age. She studied illustration at Leeds University, spending part of her degree course based in Paris. During this time, Mandy spent hours drawing and painting in Parisian parks, inspired by the world around her. It was while she was in Paris that Mandy first heard the name 'Belle' and began to develop the little girl character who would go on to star in her stories. Mandy has drawn on her own childhood memories to create the world of Belle and Boo, basing many of their adventures on her own experiences. She wants to create a world that captures all the freedom of childhood; a timeless world of fun, exploration and adventure. Today, Belle and Boo is a successful international lifestyle brand with many different product ranges and over 500 stockists worldwide. Mandy lives in Bristol with her partner and their young twin sons, Ellis and Sam.
