Philippa Brown lives in Sydney, Australia. Together with her husband she has raised three children, and over this time has fallen deeply in love with children’s literature. Philippa has worked for twenty years as a general practitioner. As a doctor, she especially loved helping children, but her love of children’s stories eventually won, and she retired early from general practice to write.
