Rosa By Starlight is my new book for 2024, published in August by Macmillan Children's Books (UK) and Margaret K. McElderry Books, Simon & Schuster (US).

 It's a fantasy adventure concerning cats, orphans, and awful relations, set mostly in the magical city of Venice. I loved writing it so much that it almost wrote itself.

Both UK and US editions are illustrated throughout, by Keith Robinson here in the UK, and Matt Rockefeller in the US. I feel so lucky to have been able to work with them both.

Happy Reading!
