Suzanne Barton

Suzanne's influences include Japanese prints, and illustrators she remembers from her childhood. Her artwork is a beautiful combination of collage, drawing and painting, and with a love of patterns and prints, Suzanne can often be found searching through vintage-paper shops for inspiration. The Dawn Chorus was Suzanne's first picture book, which was shortlisted for the Waterstones Children's Book Prize, followed by Robin's Winter Song and The Butterfly Dance. This is her fourth book for Bloomsbury.
