Hello! I’m a children’s writer. My books have won some awards, including the Royal Society Young People’s Book Prize, and my debut novel WILD BOY was named one of the five best of the year in the prestigious Branford Boase Award. I’ve also written adventure books, picture books, fairy tales, books about history and books with flaps. Lots of flaps.

Before becoming an author I was a historian, so a lot of my books are set in the past, or about the past. WILD BOY is ideal for class topics on the Victorian world, and JAKE ATLAS is perfect for anyone interested in the ancient world. They’re also great stories!

Have a look around my site. You’ll find stuff about me, and about the books I’ve written. If you want to get in touch about anything just click this.

Enjoy! Rob
