Dixie West

Dixie West writes children’s stories that celebrate being different — and being loved for it.

Through gentle humour and colourful characters, Dixie creates books that help children feel included, supported, and brave enough to be themselves.

Set in the cosy English village of Thimbleby, the Tuk Tuk Happy series follows a vibrant cast of tuk tuks whose adventures explore friendship, courage, and kindness. Parents and teachers value the stories for opening conversations about belonging and emotional resilience.

Dixie lives in the English countryside and continues to grow the Tuk Tuk Happy world, creating heart-warming stories for children everywhere.
