Autorenporträt
Claire Philip is an experienced children's editor and writer based in the Essex countryside. She loves writing young fact and fiction books to ignite a sense of wonder in children, and has worked on hundreds of titles over the last ten years. Her favorite topics are the natural world, science, history - and even unicorns. Painting was Isabel Muñoz's favorite game as a child and, as she grew, became her favorite hobby. When the time came it was only natural for Isabel to go on to study Fine Arts at the University Complutense of Madrid, Spain. Isabel's shelves have always been filled with beautifully illustrated books, and she loves to spend many hours carefully studying their magic. Today, after a lot of hard work and lots of full sketchbooks, Isabel is proud to call Illustration her dream job.
