Catherine Emmett grew up in Newcastle and was an avid reader from a young age. She spent 14 years working in an office in the City, before deciding to follow her passion and write picture books. Catherine now lives in rural Essex with her husband and three sons and is a full-time writer.

She writes rhyming and prose picture books, which are funny and heart-warming, with twisty plots and endearing characters. Her first book, King of the Swamp, was published by Simon & Schuster in 2020 with illustrations by Ben Mantle. It was shortlisted for the Portsmouth SLS Picture Book Award and the SCBWI Crystal Kite Award. Her second book, The Pet: Cautionary Tales for Children and Grown Ups, was published by Macmillan and illustrated by the bestselling illustrator of the ‘Mr Gum’ books, David Tazzyman.
