Storyteller Tim Warnes' first book was published in 1995. A writer and illustrator, he now has more than 80 original titles to his name.

Tim's weekly blog, My Life in Books - www.timwarnes.com - is for lovers of kid lit. Part memoir; part commentary; part review by an industry insider. It is intended to give readers confidence and encouragement to share their passion for literacy - creating connections through kids’ books with their loved ones, and inspire a new generation to value reading for pleasure.

Tim's married to illustrator Jane Chapman. He loves comic strips, wearing fancy hats, playing his banjo and of course - reading bedtime stories!
