Katie Blackburn lives in London with her husband and 18 month old son. Where the Wild Moms Are was written in tribute to Maurice Sendak's: Where the Wild Things Are, Katie's favorite children's book. It was partly inspired by too many sleepless nights and wild days spent with a young baby.

"In this hilarious and touching play on the children's classic, lovingly illustrated by the award-winning Sholto Walker, is for any mother who has longed to escape to an imaginative paradise"--Back cover.
