Stef Murphy (Author, Illustrator) Stef Murphy is an illustrator and storyteller living in Norwich with her husband a cheeky pup Polly. She has illustrated a number of books for children, including The Fire Fox (written by Alexandra Page), which was nominated for the Carnegie Medal and shortlisted for the Oscar’s Book Prize, and Out of the Blue (written by Robert Tregonning), nominated for the Polari Prize and Spark! Book Awards 2024. Growing up in a large family, Stef was never short of entertainment. Armed with a foil-wrapped (usually squashed) jam sandwich, Stef and her twin brother Tom would journey through bunk bed jungles, tunnel through secret airing cupboard caves. Now Stef can be found at her desk creating new worlds of her own. She has never grown out of her love for adventure and plans to spend the rest of her life exploring the wonders that the world has to offer; sometimes with a pencil, sometimes with her feet.
