Guardian Family Guides

I researched and wrote entries for a series of successful guides published with The Guardian newspaper. I also contributed to The Guardian's Rainy Day Book.

Children's books

I conceived and wrote a series of pet-care books (Me and My Pet ... ) for Two-Can Publishing, aimed at children aged 5-7 years. I also wrote a fun facts title Totally Weird Spiders (re-issued as Freaky Facts: Spiders), and My Best Book of Gymnastics, for Kingfisher.

GE Fabbri (now Eaglemoss Collections)

Prior to jumping back into the freelance pool in July 2011, I was Editorial Project Manager for GE Fabbri, an international partwork company specialising in licensed gift and magazine collections. My remit was to produce creatively-led children's series for the UK and other territories, including Russia. I worked with major licensors including DreamWorks (Shrek and Madagascar), Nickelodeon (Dora the Explorer), and Twentieth Century Fox (Ice Age).

Here's a selection of titles I developed that made it to the bookstand (or kiosk, as in most of Eastern Europe):

Around the World with Madagascar, 36 parts, pub. Russia

Ice Age Animal Collection, 52 parts, pub. in Russia

Shrek's Quests, 52 parts, pub. in UK and Russia
