Jill Barkem was drawn to the natural world ever since childhood. While training as an illustrator at St Martin\'s School of Art, her long journeys to college gave her time to escape into the imaginary world of a colony of mice, later to be developed as the delightful miniature world of Brambly Hedge. Jill passed away in 2017 but her legacy lives on in these enchanting tales.
