Sarah Tagholm is the author of Wolves in Helicopters with Paddy Donnelly, and Sam Francisco, King of the Disco.

We Are the Wibbly - an utterly charming tale of a reluctant tadpole - launches with Bloomsbury in 2024. Illustrated by Jane McGuinness.

And also in 2024 - Sarah’s When Will My Woodlouse Wake Up? will gently help small people grasp, the finality of death, in the form of Manu Montoya’s sadly expired creepy-crawly.

2023 saw Sarah's original story In the Cold Night read by Imelda Staunton for charity ShelterBox.

Sarah has a very unusual head. If she doesn't do creative things it falls off, so it's really incredibly fortunate she never had a job in data entry.

Mischievous children, nature, and all things bizarre are the inspiration behind her stories, which tend to be odd, ridiculous or, more often than not, both.

Sarah lives in Cornwall with her family, two cats and a fourteen year-old albino toad called Cuckoo (in real life).

If not reading or writing, she can usually be found in, or on or under the sea.

Sarah Tagholm's first book - the scary, funny and utterly memorable Wolves, in Helicopters - came out with Andersen Press in September 2022.

She has plenty more in the pipeline...
