Betty and the Yeti

Product Information

Sick of the cold weather and lack of company, a talking yeti flees the Himalaya by grabbing onto the wheel of a passing aeroplane, landing in the white cliffs of Dover.

A funny and surprising story about a little girl who comes face to face with the legendary scary, hairy yeti--who's not quite what he seems! She is scared at first but soon realises he is feeling a little but vulnerable and decides to help him. I have recently illustrated ‘Monsters Don’t Cry’ for Brett Mckee, and am currently working on my latest picture book ‘Recipe for a Story’ which is due to be published by Macmillan children’s books in 2014.Fantastic for talking about what to wear to keep warm and it also recognises how some animals have adapted to live in the cold. I studied at Falmouth College of Arts and earned my undergraduate degree in Illustration in 1999, followed by (a little while later) a distinction in my Masters Degree in Authorial illustration in 2005. An excellent book with rhyming text that tracks the adventure of Betty on a walk through the snow with her little red sled.
