Daisy Hirst

Hello, thank you for visiting my bookshop!

I'm an author-illustrator of picture books and books for babies. My first book, The Girl with the Parrot on Her Head was an Ezra Jack Keats Honor Book and was shortlisted for the Klaus Flugge Prize. Between them, my three Natalie and Alphonse books (beginning with ALPHONSE, THAT IS NOT OK TO DO!) have been shortlisted for the World Illustration Awards and Oscar’s Book Prize, translated into twelve languages and featured on CBeebies Bedtime Stories. Hilda and the Runaway Baby won the Lara Jones Award in the Macmillan Prize. MONSTER CLOTHES and MONSTER FOOD are my first board books. You can find out more about me at www.daisyhirst.com.

If you want to support a specific local/favourite bookshop, they'll get a bigger cut if you find their page and order my books from there (they'll get an even bigger cut if you contact the shop directly). When you buy books from this page, I earn a 10% commission and another 10% is split between all participating bookshops.
