Nelly the Very Different Bird - Alex Macdonald

Alex Macdonald has worked in the film industry as a scenic artist and painter for over twenty years (paintingsforfilms.com). He's a novelist, author-illustrator and fine artist, whose work has been sold by the Connaught Brown gallery in London. He lives in a small house in a hilltop town in Dorset, England, with his son, his son's girlfriend and a cat called Lionel. His debut picture book Have You Seen Mikki Olsen? was an adorable story about Penguin's search for his missing toy, Mikki Olsen.
