Julia Donaldson MBE is perhaps the UK’s
best-known writer for the very young. She is
a keen singer and songwriter and her
astonishing gift for rhyme ensures the status
of The Gruffalo, Room on the Broom and

Julia was the seventh UK Children’s Laureate
and when she’s not touring the country
promoting a love of rhyme and reading, she
divides her time between Sussex and
Scotland.
