John Hemming-Clark

John Hemming-Clark never planned to be an author — but as a descendant of Shakespeare’s editor and best friend, perhaps it was inevitable.

His first book, In You Go!, grew out of his years as a Scout leader, chronicling the hilarious and heart-warming things kids say and do. Since then, he’s brought laughter to readers of all ages with the Horace Horrise series — tales of the UK’s most delightfully dysfunctional family.

John’s books have been praised for their warmth, wit, and laugh-out-loud humour, earning comparisons to Sue Townsend’s Adrian Mole, Richmal Crompton’s William, and Michael Bond’s Paddington Bear.

Other works include If Gondolas Could Talk (101 ski stories) and Transformative Testimonies.

Mirth mostly guaranteed — or your money back!
