A Walk in the Dark

Take a walk through nighttime nature and meet the mammals, birds and insects that wake up while most people are tucked up in bed!

Alice Hemming (Author)
Alice has never been at a loss for ideas. A childhood playing make-believe and working her way through the shelves of the local library helped fuel her imagination. She began her working life as a librarian and a web content editor, while all the time attending various part-time classes, in sculpture, illustration and writing. Alice lives in Hertfordshire, UK with her husband and two children. When she's not visiting schools, she works in a writing shed at the top of her garden, where she can immerse herself in the world of her stories.
