She now works full time as a children's book illustrator.Mandy is interested in cinema, television and film, particularly children's films, and also enjoys skiing, running and cooking. She lives in Suffolk with her husband (who builds aeroplanes in his workshop), son, daughter and two rabbits, Wellington and Roxy..

From School Library Journal:

PreSchool-Stanley poses the title question in relation to 12 familiar animals and replies with the sounds they make. "What do you say to a pig? oink oink/What do you say to a lion? rrrrrooooar-." The final colorful underwater spread reads: "And what do you say to a little fish?" The turn of the page reveals the answer: "Hello little fish!" Set against contrasting pastel backgrounds, the creatures are centered on each page with their sounds written in playful fonts underneath. A solid, but not particularly inspired concept book for lapsits and toddler storytimes.
