Wendy Meddour Author

Wendy Meddour's debut novel, A Hen in the Wardrobe,was shortlisted for the Branford Boase Award, selected as one of the Guardian's 'Outstanding Children's Books of the Year' and won the John C Laurence Award for writing that 'improves relations between the races'. Wendy has also written the much-loved Wendy Quill series. Like Dottie, these books are illustrated by her 13-year-old daughter, Mina May - whose debut: Wendy Quill is a Crocodile's Bottom was described as a 'visual inspiration' by The Bookseller. Though she left the hilltops to acquire a doctorate and teach English at Oxford University, she still loves to visit.
