As Nice As Pie

Description

Ages 3 to 8 years In less than a month there were hundreds, perhaps thousands, with bellies all bulging from bacon in baps... Mavis loves to bake and share but when the birds get wind of her generosity, Mavis finds herself run ragged! She cooks up a giant pie, birdy pie! The birds agree to be kinder and also to help Mavis achieve her lifelong dream of opening her own pie shop.

Gary has always enjoyed writing since he was much younger and had significantly more hair! When he's not working full-time as a copywriter, much of his spare time is spent researching picture books or developing his own ideas. He's particularly fond of writing kids books, mainly in rhyming form, and his influences include Julia Donaldson, Roald Dahl, and Dr Seuss. Gary was born in 1973, lives in Northampton and is also a proactive SCBWI member. Author of: As Nice As Pie Tim was born in Surrey in 1977, and is a freelance illustrator and Art teacher. For much of his life he has been scribbling down ideas and can usually be found with a pencil in one hand and a sketchbook in the other! Tim has a real passion for character design and storytelling. His illustration work has been described as 'story telling with whimsical charm, warmth and humour' and he'd like to think that is pretty true! Tim lives with his wife by the sea on Hayling Island.
