Tracey Corderoy, author of Monty and Milli, has been interviewed on the Young Readers Birmingham website. Answering the question ‘What inspires you?’ Tracey said, ‘Absolutely anything and everything inspires me. I collect things – pictures, objects, photographs, good words, or phrases I like the sound of. Sometimes…

…I don’t know what I’ll do with these things but I know that, eventually, some of them will lead me into exciting stories.’

Tracey will be holding two events at the Young Readers Birmingham festival on Saturday 9th June. The events will be held at the Birmingham Central Library, 11am-12pm and 2:30pm-3:30pm. Tracey will be telling the story of Monty and Milli.
