The author of over 115 books, including the top selling Horrible Histories series, Terry Deary is one of the most successful children's writers today. He sells one million books a year and is the most borrowed British author in school libraries. When Martin Brown was little he loved drawing and he loved animals, particularly lesser-known animals, so it was only a question of time before he ended up drawing them. Quite a lot of time . In the meantime, he grew up, moved from Melbourne to England, and illustrated the phenomenally successful Horrible Histories series. Now, at last, it's time for the animals.
