In 2014 Katrina won the Society of Children's Book Writers and Illustrators' Undiscovered Voices Competition. Since then she has written several young fiction titles for children, and Car, Car, Truck, Jeep was her first picture book and the start of a series with Bloomsbury and Nick Sharratt. Katrina lives in a small village in Berkshire with her husband and three children. Nick Sharratt is the bestselling illustrator of over 250 books for children including books by Dame Jacqueline Wilson, Julia Donaldson and Michael Rosen. His instantly recognisable art style has delighted children for years. Nick lives in Sussex and is the proud owner of a gold Blue Peter badge.

Reviews

Shiver-me timbers, what a sunny, sea-shanty of a book! * Armadillo Magazine * It's silly, bright and catchy. Very young readers will adore it * Independent on CAR, CAR, TRUCK, JEEP * Full of bright colours and simple rhymes, this is a fantastic re-use of a popular nursery rhyme and one that you can't help but sing along to as you read it aloud. * CBI Reading Guide 2019-20 *
