Sally Murphy always wanted to write when she grew up - but then she realised she didn't really want to grow up. So, she writes and enjoys being a big kid. Sally writes verse novels, historical fiction, poetry, picture books and more and when she isn't writing she is walking on the beach, swimming or working her day job - which involves convincing future teachers of the joys of children's literature.
