Donna David grew up in the West Midlands in a house full of noisy siblings, fun parents, mad aunties, and maggots (her dad is a fisherman.) She'd often be found reading by flash light way after bed time and this love of reading has never left her. She studied English at Loughborough University, England, and currently works as an English coach at the local high school. She is married to an RAF pilot and she has worked closely with the charity Little Troopers on a series of picture books written for military children. Her first YA story, Bruised was published by Badger Learning in 2018. Donna loves writing for children and teenagers and thinks that a child's imagination is the best place in the world!
