Andy Shepherd, an author dedicated to creating books for children aged 8 to 12, captures life and adventures in a unique way. Based in picturesque Cambridge, she looks beyond the granite buildings, seeking the horizon of the sea that fascinates her. The pages of her books resonate with her voice, with her words coming to life with color and imagination.

She lives in a world that brings vivid images, close to Cambridge, with her partner, their two sons, and their loyal four-legged companion, an enthusiastic and playful Border Collie. Her daily life is imbued with love for her family and the unexplored charm of seaside life.

In her free time, Andy does not limit herself to words alone. She engages in an effort to bring the magic of Cambridge closer to the sea, exploring ways to combine the charming urban landscape with the vast blue.

Her first work, "The Boy Who Grew Dragons," is a journey into the world of fantasy, where characters come to life and adventures unfold like dreams awakening. Through her joyful and flamboyant writing, she invites children to discover the magical world hidden within the pages of her books.
