Emily Lloyd-Gale

When I was in school I was bullied so badly that I was almost completely isolated. In later life, I realised that it had affected my ability to create friendships. I really didn’t want other children to experience what I went through, so started to write stories.

This became my passion and in 2020 my first book Mighty Maurice was released. It talks about bullying, self-belief, friendship and love, and now I get to visit schools and to talk to the children about my experiences and the themes it covers.

With each visit I hope to inspire a new generation of children to read, write and what to do if they experience bullying themselves or see it happening to others.

My new book The Moose That Saved Christmas is coming out in Sept 2023.

Besides writing I love to metal detect, sing and spend time with my family and husband.
