Author Bio
William Mayne has been described as one of the outstanding children's authors of this century (Oxford Companion to Children's Lit.) - and is considered a top league writer 'the master of contemporary English writing for children' Times Literary Supplement. He has won all major awards including the Carnegie and Guardian fiction award. Susan Hill wrote of The Fox Gate, his first Story Book for Hodder, ' These stories for eight-year-olds and up are jewels - the words 'timeless' and 'classic' should be used sparingly, but are justified here.'
