Lou Treleaven Author & Illustrator

Lou Treleaven's first picture book was published in 2016 and she is now the author of over 20 children's books including The Snowflake Mistake read on CBeebies Bedtime by Suranne Jones. She lives in a Bedfordshire village with her family and likes reading, art, gaming and her cat Badger. Steven lives in North London and works from a little studio in his house. When drawing, Steven's main focus is always the cast of characters that brings life and movement to the picture. He loves to emphasise subtle humour, taking influence from the adventure stories he loved as a child. Whether that's tales of pirates and sunken treasure, cowboys, knights and dragons, or classic murder mystery stories, they all shape the pictures he loves to draw.
