At night when it is dark and I am in bed and I can’t get to sleep I hear noises. I hear țap, țap, țap. I know what it is. It’s a tree blowing in the wind. It taps on the glass. That’s all. But I like to pretend it’s the Flat Man trying to get in.
Rose Impey was born in Northwich, Cheshire. When she first left school she worked in a bank, but soon realised this was not for her, and went back to college to train to be a primary school teacher. Rose spends a lot of time visiting schools to read her work. Her books are widely published worldwide, including the United States, Australia, France, Denmark, Germany and Spain. Rose enjoys eating, talking, swimming and reading, although not necessarily in that order!
