Sinopsis

I'm Arthur and I'm seven, and in the summer, I really like staying with my Grandparents by Picket Lake, but in the winter I can get a bit bored. This year, it was even colder and icier than normal. Grandpa told me all about the time he won a medal in the Great Crossing of Picket Lake. I really wanted to go ice skating. Then Cousin Eugene had an idea... About the series: Arthur is a seven-year-old boy who is brilliant at being a seven-year-old-boy. When Arthur visits his grandparents' house by the lake, more often than not, he becomes entangled in a new adventure, which he must solve with the help of his pet duck and useless dog and hopefully without too much help from eccentric Cousin Eugene. These are witty stories full of understated humour and populated by quirky yet recognisable characters, and narrated by Arthur who has the rational worldview that comes exclusively from being seven-years-old.

She's always loved drawing and took a degree in illustration at University College Falmouth. She now works full time as an illustrator, and particularly enjoyed drawing Arthur. 'Drawing him came very naturally to me', she says, 'It's almost like he was already in my head, waiting for me to read the story and bring his image to life. I'm also slightly envious of his pet duck. Well, who wouldn't want a pet duck?!'
