About the Book

Gervelie was born in the Republic of the Congo in 1995. This is the true story of her flight from her home in Africa to seek refuge in the United Kingdom and is told in her words. It is the honest and heartrending story of a family torn apart by war and their courageous decision to seek a life of peace in the West. This is the first book in a brand new series highlighting the true stories of refugee children.

About the Author :
Anthony Robinson is an author of children's books and an author, consultant and teacher in English Language Teaching. He has lived and travelled all over the world, from his original home in Australia to Southeast Asia and Europe, from Japan to Edinburgh, and now lives in Cambridge. He is particularly interested in comparing and contrasting real children's lives, be they refugees who have fled their own countries, children living normal lives in vastly different cultures, or children living in difficult circumstances.

Her Mum says she used to sit and draw in her pram! After graduating from Edinburgh College of Art in 1971 with a Diploma specializing in Painting and Glass Design, she taught in various secondary schools until 1986, when she started to paint portraits professionally. In 1999 she ventured into the field of children's book illustration, and since then has illustrated many children's books. June lives in Edinburgh with her husband and two children, two guinea pigs, Holly and Fern and lots of goldfish. Annemarie Young is an author, publisher and editorial consultant, in children's books and primary education. She has lived and travelled all over the world, from her original home in Australia to Southeast Asia and Europe, from Egypt to Edinburgh, and now lives in Cambridge. She has worked with over 100 children's authors and illustrators from all corners of the globe, and loves the whole process of publishing, from the first exciting ideas, to the often heated discussions about how to realise those ideas, all the way to checking colour proofs and finally seeing the printed book.
