Q. how did you come to write There Were Five in the Bed?

A. I didn't write it, I illustrated it. I wanted to add something new to this well known nursery rhyme and used dinosaurs for the five characters in the bed. If you look closely you'll see other little stories develop in the pictures in the background. With three children in our house, I often wake up to find five in the bed so there's an element of autobiography here...and maybe even a likeness!
