Harriet Muncaster

After studying Illustration at the Norwich University College of Art, Muncaster completed a master’s degree in Children’s Book Illustration at Anglia Ruskin University. Her first book for young children, I am a Witch’s Cat, was published in 2014 and won the Blue Hen Book Award. It’s sequel Happy Halloween Witch’s Cat came out in 2015, and the following year saw the publication of the first four titles in Muncaster’s beloved series featuring Isadora Moon.

The Isadora Moon books have been translated into over thirty languages and have sold over two million copies worldwide. A delightful spin-off series based on Isadora’s cousin Mirabelle began in 2020 with Mirabelle Gets Up to Mischief. The same year, Muncaster also published Bad and Glittering, the first part of her middle-grade series Victoria Stitch, followed by Free and Famous in 2022.
