A wonderful mix of kittens, magic and friendship. In Sparkling Steps Olivia hasn't been welcomed by the other girls at the prestigious ballet school, Yew Lodge, but when she discovers loveable blue-grey kitten Flame things start to look up and when Maisie moves to the seaside with her mum and dad she's really lonely. Then one day on the beach, she finds a tiny tabby kitten with big emerald eyes who looks just as lonely as she does, and suddenly the summer seems more magical.
Sue was born in Northampton where she still lives. For many years she worked for Northamptonshire libraries and remains a passionate supporter of Public Libraries. Sue loves everything about books, the feel of them, their smell. the way they look. And has a habit of matching a bookmark to the cover of each book she's reading. The process of reading, the feel of the book, carrying it around in her shoulder bag, sitting in favourite cafes reading all make for a complete sensory experience. Browsing bookshops old and new, talking all things bookish with other book lovers, spending time with other writers and meeting with fans of her own books at author events are her favourite things. That and eating good quality dark chocolate, while writing.
