Claire Boosey

Hi, I’m Claire Boosey – author, illustrator, wife, and mum of two little whirlwinds.

My writing adventure started in lockdown, when my eldest son’s obsession with walks (and cars!) inspired me to create my first children’s book, Robin Walks to See the Cars. Watching his excitement made me want other kids to feel the same joy about exploring the world around them.

But life isn’t always sunshine and rainbows... and that’s what led me to write my memoir, I Can’t Stop Pushing. It’s my very real, sometimes hilarious, sometimes messy journey through love, motherhood, loss, and learning how to just keep going (even on the days when you want to hide under the duvet).

If my books make you laugh, cry, or simply feel a little less alone, then I’ve done what I set out to do. My goal? To remind women (especially mums!) that they’re stronger than they think and to keep pushing through... one chaotic, beautiful day at a time.
