Author Biography
Yvonne Banham grew up on an island off the coast of Cumbria and spent lots of time huddled on the wild beach with a scary book. When she left school, she couldn't decide whether to be a nurse, an artist, or a writer, so she tried them all and decided she liked words best. She can speak Dutch (badly) and believes in ghosts though she's never met one. She lives in Edinburgh with her husband and when she's not writing, she's hiking or trail running with her naughty beagle Toby. She was one of SCBWI's Undiscovered Voices of 2020.
