About The Illustrator
KATY HUDSON started her Illustration career as a small child drawing on freshly emulsioned walls around the house! Her parents quickly dissuaded this medium and encouraged drawing with pencil and paper instead. Her debut author/illustrated picture book "Bear and Duck" was published by Harper Collins in June 2015, to a starred review from Kirkus Review. Her subsequent books Too Many Carrots and A Loud Winter’s Nap and The Golden Acorn, went on to top the bestsellers list in the U.S.
“It’s very easy to fall in love with a book purely from its cover illustration alone. We do this a lot, and sometimes it works out well - sometimes it works out terribly well!” —Publisher’s Weekly for Too Many Carrots by Katy Hudson
