Clara Vulliamy is an illustrator and author perhaps best known for her Dixie O’Day series (Random House), aimed at children aged 5+, for which she collaborated with her mother, Shirley Hughes. Clara has also created a pre-school series, Martha and the Bunny Brothers (Harper Collins) and collaborated with James Mayhew on Bubble and Squeak (Orchard). Clara has also rejuvenated four Mary Plain titles, by author Gwynedd Rae (Egmont).

Clara has teamed up with Polly Faber on several projects including the 4-book Mango and Bambang series (Walker Books) and picture book Picking Pickle (Pavilion Children’s Books). Clara’s latest publication with Faber, The Book Cat  is a classic wartime tale of a (real!) cat who made his home at the Faber offices and decided he’d never leave.

Clara has written and illustrated the Dotty Detective series and the Marshmallow Pie the Cat Superstar (HarperCollins). Clara’s latest publication is The Dog Squad: The Newshound, the first title in a new series about a group of budding journalist friends (and dogs!), published by HarperCollins.
