Frances Tosdevin

Frances Tosdevin studied Archaeology, Anthropology and Classics at Cambridge, so she has a certain fondness for old things, and when she was little, she longed to own a real dinosaur. She has been shortlisted five times in picture book competitions, and in 2022, she was thrilled to win the Crystal Kite Award for her debut picture book. Frances lives in Bedfordshire, and enjoys nature, theatre and gardening, as well as spending time with her growing family of grandchildren.
