Jessica Shepherd graduated from University College Falmouth with a Degree in Illustration. Now she writes and illustrates, alongside many other exciting and challenging adventures.
Jessica has varied experiences of working as a carer. She has a special interest in helping people live happy lives, and wants her books to do the same.
Over the past few years she has been exploring the importance of heart to heart communication as an essential foundation for happiness. She is passionate about using children's books as a gentle tool to bridge discussion about parts of life that may be foreign and not easily understood and she hopes the pages of Grandma help families learn together and connect more deeply.
She grew up with her brother and sister, and remembers collecting worms for mud pies, as well as making perfume from flower petals and vinegar!
