Philip Ardagh Biography
Philip Ardagh is over 6 feet 7 inches tall with
a big bushy beard. Not only is he very large and very hairy, but he has also
written more than sixty children's books for all ages. He has been known to
write books about serious subjects -- such as Egyptian hieroglyphs and
archeology -- but also writes abnormally funny books (eg. A House Called
Awful End) that make lots of people laugh.
Currently living as a full-time writer with a wife and two cats (Beanie and
Snorkel), in a seaside town somewhere in England, he has been -- among other
things -- an advertising copywriter, a hospital cleaner, a (highly unqualified)
librarian, and a reader for the blind.
