Swapna Haddow is the multi award-winning children's author of the Dave Pigeon series, which has received rave reviews since first publishing in 2016 and went on to win three regional awards in the UK and was shortlisted for the prestigious Sainsbury's Children's Book Award. Swapna loves to write about boisterous animals that cause mayhem and has also written the Bad Panda and Ballet Bunnies series as well as My Dad is a Grizzly Bear and Little Rabbit's Big Surprise to make sure mean cats, grizzly bears and big-hearted little rabbits find their place on the bookshelves. Friendship and humour are always at the heart of what she loves to write. Swapna lives in New Zealand with her husband and son, and their dog, Archie. When she's not writing she is usually reading, dreaming about living on a boat or eating Jaffa Cakes.
