About The Author

After completing a degree in Drama at the University of Exeter, Kim Hillyard spent nine years working as a music journalist for various publications, including NME, Time Out, and the BBC. She has also worked as a drama and arts facilitator, delivering assemblies, storytelling, and workshops in schools, bookstores, and community spaces on everything from phonics to creative writing.

"Featuring a protagonist who brims with grit and determination, Hillyard’s tale is affirming. Humor balances out all possible platitudes, and Mabel, the rotund little hero with a tiny rucksack and hat, is a delight. Readers can’t help but cheer her on." —Kirkus Reviews"A first purchase for all libraries serving young children, this is an excellent story about belief and resilience." —School Library Journal
