Children will often write, 'We love your books because there are no adults in them.'

Never before had I been offered a contract and advance before a word had been written... I went home and began writing 'Julie of the Wolves.'

I first became aware of the delights of the natural world when my father, an entomologist, presented me with what looked like a twig. When it got up and walked, my delight was such that I wrote a poem, 'To a Walking Stick.'

I have discovered I cannot dream up characters as incredible as the ones I meet in the wilderness.

Every day, I get e-mails from kids who want a tree - a world away from the adult world.

I hope my books empower kids, and that they learn how to work out their problems themselves.

I kept on writing and illustrating, for this is what I did well because I loved it.

I would just watch the animals, and their stories would roll out when I wrote.

Oh, those golden-yellow eyes of the wolf! You can feel yourself being pulled in. I knew I had been accepted - and that I had spoken to another species.

I hope my books empower kids, and that they learn how to work out their problems themselves.
