From Source to Sea: The Story of Rivers

Kay Barnham (Author)

Kay Barnham was born in Barrow-in-Furness, grew up in Carlisle, went to college in Brighton, and lived in Hove for a while, before sailing for Kinsale, Co Cork, popping back to Hove and then moving to the New Forest with her husband and daughter. She has never lived more than ten miles from the sea.

She began working in children’s publishing in 1992 as an editor, working on illustrated non-fiction. She then commissioned fiction titles, editing picture books, storybooks, and novels. After that, she got the chance to write her own books.

She writes non-fiction as Kay Barnham. Her specialist subjects include ice-skating, Isambard Kingdom Brunel, lightning, fairies, Roald Dahl, Sir Isaac Newton, Christmas, dolphins, Florence Nightingale, and cracker jokes. She also writes about chocolate.

She also writes fiction as Kay Woodward, including the Skate School series and the novels Jane Airhead and Wuthering Hearts. Altogether, she has written about a hundred books. Her favourite colour is navy blue, and her favourite chocolate is 85% cocoa solids.
