Lucie was 8 years old when she decided that there was no better job in the world than illustrating picture books. She spent most of her childhood years painstakingly reproducing her favourite picture books on bits of scrap paper, finished with some crookedly placed staples along the spine.

After graduating with a degree in Illustration from the University of Lincoln in 2009, Lucie explored both Fine Art and Photography before returning to pursue her life-long dream of illustrating children's books. She largely works digitally, but occasionally returns to her much-loved black tin of watercolours and box of coloured pencils.

Lucie's work is inspired by nature, nostalgia and a huge helping of magic. She loves creating cute characters and has a soft spot for old library books and little details. When Lucie isn't in her home studio in Yorkshire, England, you can find her sipping lattes in cosy coffee shops, jogging through the leafy suburbs with her headphones blaring, or exploring the Peak District with her husband and two small children in tow.

Cottage Door Press is an independent publisher of high-quality children's books. Our books are designed to spark curiosity in the littlest readers and fan the flames of lifelong learning. We understand children deserve our respect. That's why we always select artwork and stories that encourage caregivers to "read up" to their little ones--exploring interests together, learning together, and giving their young minds room to grow.

We also believe in creating stories that reflect the boundless possibilities of all children. We hope to create books that inspire little ones to connect, encourage them to dream, give them cause to celebrate, and allow them to see themselves beautifully reflected in the stories they read.

To bring these beautiful stories to life, our diverse and talented staff collaborates with authors and illustrators from all backgrounds and nationalities. We have also partnered with multicultural brands and literacy organizations to make sure our books reflect and reach as many little ones as possible.
