Tony Bradman is an experienced editor, writer and anthologist in the world of children's books. He has written numerous plays, stories and poems for young children. His book 'Here come the Heebie-Jeebies and Other Scary Poems' was short-listed for The English 4-11 Awards for the Best Children's Illustrated Books of 2000. Jake grew up in North London, but escaped to the South coast to study illustration and decided to stay by the sea, swimming (almost) every morning! Aside from his love of drawing, Jake is an avid reader, a meticulous collector of comics, a terrible, but improving pianist and a passionate player of games. There are few things Jake enjoys as much as walking in the fresh air of Exmoor national park, but one of them is playing Texas Hold 'Em poker. He probably has an Ace and a King.
