David O'Connell is a writer and illustrator living in Brighton. He works mostly in children's books, writing for other illustrators or illustrating for other writers! He likes stories about magic and monsters, especially if they're silly monsters, and loves making comics too. His favourite sweets are fizzy cola bottles. @davidoconnell When he was younger Seb Burnett desperately wanted to discover a Lost World, but wasn't allowed out past teatime so spent his evenings making up stories instead. He now lives in Bristol, England, where he runs an animation company and works as a director, character designer and illustrator. @seb_burnett @bertram_fiddle
