Sally Barton

Sally Barton was at the age of six when she first took a book from the library, from then on words and stories became an important part of her life. She not only spends her days creating fictional worlds for both adults and children, but she also passes this love and knowledge on to her students as a tutor for children with learning differences. Sally previously worked for the police but was happiest at her job in a public library while finishing her Legal Studies degree. Sally enjoys teaching and travelling but writing is her first love and her wish is to instil the love of books in children. Sally was honoured to win the Writers Unleashed Picture Book Competition in 2022 with her first picture book, Goodnight Sheep.
