Pauline Francis has spent all her life with books: reading them, studying them (when she was at University), translating them (when she lived in Africa), teaching them (when she was a French teacher) and working with them (when she was a school librarian). One day – about ten years ago – she thought: I’d like to write them. So she did! Pauline is married with two grown-up children, and enjoys going to the cinema and the theatre or anywhere where she can watch other people. She lives in Hertfordshire and Norfolk.

Pauline does all kinds of writing: stories for young people learning English as a foreign language, including Adventure in the Alps, The Football Match and Pirates!
