Sue Arengo

Sue Arengo has a 1st Class (Hons) degree in Humanities. She worked for Oxford University Press as a freelance author for over 20 years, writing fiction for children and young adults learning english as a foreign language.

As well as creating many original stories like Baby Robot and Archie's Sweet Shop, she was also the sole author for the multi award winning series Classic Tales which involved retelling traditional fairy tales for overseas learners of english. This series is still in print, now in a 2nd edition.

She also works as a self taught artist, using the name Kisa - creating colourful, imaginative and visionary works of art in top grade oil paints. Her most recent exhibition was at The New Room cafe at John Wesleys Methodist Chapel in Broadmead, Bristol.

"Lord of the Meadow is a new fairy story for children everywhere. I decided to illustrate it myself, with a lot of small illustrations, painted, unusually, in oils. It is a lyrical, amusing and uplifting story - all set in an English summer meadow - enjoy!!"
