My books

Dadbot

The first in a brand new comic book series. It’s about a robot father figure. “Ideal for Dog Man fans” said The Guardian.

Skater Baby

My first picture book! It’s about a baby who steals a skateboard. Booklist said it “combines a witty, well-structured text with clearly delineated, buoyant illustrations … Great fun for reading aloud.” So that was nice. Published in the US by Penguin

Comic Classics

Old books with new doodles. The whole thing started as a tweet, and then became a real life series.

Evil Genius

A new headteacher comes to the school of shy-girl Tom Ginger. Is she … evil? Well, yes. Yes she is.
