Katie Cleminson’s books are very special things. They burst with wholly original, joyful artwork and stories that celebrate the magic of children’s lives, sparking their imaginations.
Her debut picture book, Box of Tricks , uses colour in a bold, inventive way, grabbing children and adults alike and taking them on a journey to meet Eva – the girl who becomes a master magician, conjuring extraordinary delights out of her special box, including one incredibly adorable polar bear.
A celebration of creativity and imaginative play, Box of Tricks was followed by Wake Up ! – the story of one boy’s day, accompanied by some furry friends who show that maybe animals and people aren’t so different after all. This fun rhythmic read-aloud has lots for children to recognize and relate to.
And we have more magic to come from Katie: watch out for her new book, Otto the Book Bear . It has high adventure, a tiny bear and a passion for books!
Katie Cleminson creates worlds that children love to dive into; there’s so much to share, discover and be inspired by in them - we can’t wait to see what’s next!
Wake up, and up and up! There's so much to do in the day, but before you know it, it's time for bed and for stories and cuddles...
