Poppy is desperate to win the prize for the best costume at Madam Angelwing's annual Honeypot Hill fancy dress party so she asks her cousin Saffron to make one for her. But much to Poppy's disappointment, Saffron says no as she thinks it will not only spoil the fun but also give her young cousin an unfair advantage over the other children. Instead, Saffron suggests a sewing bee for all the village children, which turns out to be great fun, even for the boys.
The day of the party arrives at last, but when Madame Angelwing has to choose the winner, she simply can't decide since the costumes are all so wonderful, so she gives each and every child a special prize. So although Poppy doesn't win first prize, she is very happy because she is still a fancy dress princess, along with all her friends.
Janey was born in Edinburgh and grew up by the seaside just outside the city. Janey published the first two Princess Poppy books herself (with her own illustrations) and the books were so popular that Random House Children's Books soon bought the series and re-packaged the books. The series is now going from strength to strength, including picture books, novels for young readers, activity books and sumptuous gift books.
Janey read English at Edinburgh University specializing in the Victorian novel. Following this she became a teacher - a career that she absolutely adored - and then, with her husband, set up The Jelly Club, which has become an extremely successful chain of children's activity centres in Scotland. She still very much enjoys visiting schools and talking to children to find out what they like doing and what makes them laugh. Janey and her husband live in Edinburgh with their three sons.
Veronica gained a BA in Graphic Design at Bradford and Liverpool Polytechnic which led her into the world of greetings card design and then book illustration. Veronica says that her favourite thing about illustrating picture books is inventing characters and bringing them to life through her illustrations. Veronica lives and works in the small market town of Otley in West Yorkshire, and in her spare time she enjoys long-distance cycling in the Yorkshire Dales with her partner.
