About the author
Harriet Evans
109 books1,206 followersI was born in London and grew up there. I was very bookish, and had a huge imagination which used to cause me to get rather anxious at times. Now I know it's a good thing for a writer to have. I loved musicals, and playing imaginative games, and my Barbie perfume making kit. Most of all I loved reading. I read everything, but I also read lots of things over and over, which I think is so important.
At university I read Classical Studies, which is a great way of finding out that the world doesn't change much and people make the same mistakes but it's interesting to look at why. I was at Bristol, and i loved the city, making new friends, being a new person.
After university I came back to London and got a job in publishing. I loved working in publishing so much, and really felt for the first time in my life that when I spoke people understood what I was saying. Book people are good people. I became an editor after a few years, working with many bestselling novelists, and in 2009 I left to write full time.
I've written 13 novels and several short stories and one Quick Read, which is an excellent way of getting people into reading more. I've acquired a partner and two children along the way.
In 2019 we moved to Bath, out of London, and I am very happy there. We live opposite a hedgerow, and I can be boring about gardening, and there's room for my collection of jumpsuits and all our books. We have lots of books. Apart from anything else they keep the house warm. xxx

Beautiful illustrations and really interesting facts, found this in the library but this is one I would definitely have bought for my animal loving children (they're adults now) will bear this one in mind for presents.
A range of habitats show the animals that inhabit them above and below ground. The half page flaps show what's going on behind the scenes. I loved the animal facts, a very cute picture of a possum playing dead informed me that not only do they play dead when threatened they give off a rotten smell too. The burrowing owl, places mammal faeces around their burrows to attract beetles to snack on, lazy but clever!
Really fun book, highly recommended for animal loving children and adults too!
