Kate Hindley studied illustration at Falmouth College of Art, and went on to work for two years as a children's print designer at a studio in Northampton, whilst working freelance on children's books and greetings cards. She has now illustrated many much-loved picture books, including Oliver and Patch by Claire Freedman (author of the Aliens Love Underpants series) and the award-winning You Must Bring a Hat by Simon Philip. In 2019, Kate launched her adorable Treacle Street series lift-the-flap books, for which she both writes and illustrates. In 2020, she illustrated The Littlest Yak, written by Lu Fraser, which went on to win both the Sainsburys Children's Book Award and Oscar's Book Prize. Kate lives in Birmingham.
