For a very long time, the world was black and white... Last Island is struggling.

It's time for Umbertiska Lupp, a young islander with pockets full of cake, to take matters into her own hands and embark on an adventure to bring unity and colour to Last Island.
A stunningly illustrated middle-grade story of kindness, determination, a night sky salesman and a young girl named Umbertiska Lupp.

She grew up in Devon, studied in Cornwall then spent a couple of years as a background artist in children's animation. On realising she was big, she decided she wanted to write and illustrate, went back to Falmouth to complete a masters in Authorial Illustration, then got a job in the Oxford University Museum of Natural History, photographing insects. She now works part time at the museum and part time as a writer and illustrator.
