I worked as a Commissioning Editor in publishing for 8 years. Here is some some of my favourite work from that time.
What Would she do
Commissioning editor, Carlton Books
I created and produced this illustrated children’s guide to 25 feminist heroes. This books adds the special twist of addressing common teenage issues such as bullying, homework drama and friendship dramas from the perspective of these 25 women. What Would She Do has been translated in 5 languages.
To The edge of the universe
Commissioning editor, Carlton Books
Did you know that you can *technically* see all the way to the very edge of our universe from your bedroom window? I commissioned this 4.3-metre foldout book to show kids what that would look like.
Spot the… series
Author, QED Publishing
I wrote and art commissioned four interactive children’s books that feature a recurring character in each scene, and creative play suggestions for parents.
