Rachel Delahaye (Author)
Rachel Delahaye got told off for talking in class quite a lot. That's because she loves words. After studying linguistics in Wales, very near a town called Llanfairpwllgwyngyllgogerychwyrndrobwllllantysiliogogogoch (which is a great word), she began a career in print journalism. Nowadays, when she's not playing Boggle, Scrabble or Balderdash, she writes children's books.

He has also illustrated a number of children's books including the world-renowned Famous Five by Enid Blyton. He finds this the most splendid and outrageously fantastic job in the world (and yes, he is aware of Ostrich Racing).
