Alison Friend has loved painting and drawing for as long as she can remember. Animals were always a favorite subject, and as a child she copied them obsessively from wildlife books and encyclopaedias. She studied Fine Art at Nottingham Trent University and after graduating spent the next three years working as an apprentice stonemason high up on Nottingham’s historic buildings. After a few years chipping away at stone, she moved to America where she began painting funny animal pictures to make into greetings cards. It was then she realized she should be illustrating books for children. Books she’s illustrated include What Color is Caesar? by Maxine Kumin and Making a Friend by Tammi Sauer.
