About the Author
EVA IBBOTSONwas born in Vienna in 1925 and moved to England with her father when the Nazis came into power.
Ibbotson wrote more than twenty books for children and young adults, many of which garnered nominations for major awards for children's literature in the UK, including the Nestle Smarties Book Prize and the Whitbread Prize.
Eva's critically acclaimedJourney to the River Seawon the Smarties Gold Medal in 2001. Set in the Amazon, it was written in honour of her deceased husband Alan, a former naturalist.
