About the author
Jacqueline Harvey (Author)
Jacqueline Harvey worked in schools for many years but has had a passion for storytelling since she was a child.
She is the author of the popular Alice-Miranda, Clementine Rose, Kensy and Max and Willa and Woof series, which have sold almost two million copies in Australia alone. In 2022, she released a picture book, That Cat, illustrated by one of her former students, Kate Isobel Scott. The pair has since gone on to publish The Daring Tale of Gloria the Great and the Kevin the Sheep series. Jacqueline's books have received numerous shortlistings and awards while her picture book, The Sound of the Sea, was a CBCA Honour Book.
Jacqueline speaks to thousands of young people at schools and festivals around the world and says the characters in her books are often made up of the best bits of children she’s met over the years. While she is not a twin, like Kensy and Max she does have excellent powers of observation and has always thought she’d make a great spy.
She has narrated over thirty audio books.
Jacqueline lives between Sydney, Australia, and Queenstown, New Zealand. The first book in her new middle grade series, The Girl and the Ghost, launches in 2025.
Kate Isobel Scott (Illustrator)
Kate Isobel Scott (b. 1988) grew up in a small town in Australia. Once she finished school Kate moved to England to study Illustration at Falmouth University in Cornwall. In 2011 Kate graduated with a BA Honours degree in illustration and moved to London.
After a few years of working in London in set design and art department, Kate relocated to The Hague in The Netherlands. Here she focused on her career as an animation director and illustrator. Working for clients such as New York Times, Adobe, Libresse, Greenpeace, Off-White and Gymshark.
Kate has developed her own visual language within the stop motion animation industry, using plasticine as a main medium often combined with painted elements. Kate’s handmade plasticine style is heavily inspired by the nostalgia of 80s/90s children’s television. Her colourful, friendly and sometimes wonky characters celebrate the essence of hand made craft. Besides animation Kate works on children’s picture books and has been exploring painting and illustration. Her work has been shown in several exhibitions in Europe.
Recently Kate has returned to her roots and moved to Melbourne, Australia where she continues to work on both her self-initiated and commissioned animation work.
