Bio:

Sue Whiting started her working life as a primary school teacher with a special interest in literacy education and children’s literature. One school holiday, Sue put on a dinosaur costume and went to work as a storyteller at a children’s party shop. It was then she realised that telling stories was the job for her. In 2005 Sue left teaching to pursue a career in publishing and now works as a children’s book editor. She is also a successful children’s author who has written many books, including picture books, chapter books and novels for pre-teens.
