Daisy and the Trouble with Maggots Award-winning team by Kes Gray (author), Garry Parsons (illustrator), and Nick Sharratt (illustrator) (UK edition)

Author/Illustrator

Nick Sharratt

Nick Sharratt needs little introduction with books going down a storm time and time again. He has written and illustrated many books for children, and also enjoys great success illustrating books for Jacqueline Wilson and Jeremy Strong.

He was born in 1962 and trained at the St Martin’s School of Art. Inspired by 1960s pop and graphic art, his work is instantly recognisable for its bold images and punchy colours. With lots of moving tabs, flaps to lift and other interactive features, as well as exciting wordplay and cheeky humour, Nick’s books let children discover all the different ways in which books and words can work.

He lives and works in Brighton, in a studio overlooking the sea.

   Daisy is thrilled when her uncle offers to take her off on a fishing trip. There’s so much awesome stuff to learn! Like how water witches turn fishermen into dog poo, why supermarkets don’t stock picnicky foods like lemonade and chicken wings on the same shelf – and why it’s a really, really bad idea to use wriggly, icky maggots as catapult ammunition! Whatever next? More hilarious antics with the young madam who just can’t keep her nose out of trouble.
