Author's Bio
Mary Ellis grew up in Switzerland and at the age of eleven came to school in England. Following teacher training, Mary taught for ten years in London primary schools. The idea for The Arctic Fox came to her when transforming her classroom book corner into the Arctic -- complete with toy seals, polar bears and paintings by the children! Mary loves reading, poetry, picnics, walking in hills and dancing with her husband -- the illustrator Andy Ellis -- and daughter, Mathilda. This is her first book. Her second, Lily Dragon, is set in China and will be published by HarperCollins Children's Books in November.
