Danny Pearson was very much a child of the 80s. He was brought up on a diet of unusual cartoons and movies involving things changing into other things, or adventures set to cheap keyboard soundtracks.

He studied Art at college, which led him onto studying Art and Graphic Design at Leeds Metropolitan University. After graduating with no real clue of what to do he found a job as a children’s bookseller at a Waterstones book store. This is where he found his love of books (children’s books in particular). He joined the Badger team in 2008 and has worked on over 200 publications. His first book (Beekeeper) was published in 2010. He has since gone on to write 3Dee, Alien Eggs, Invaders, Monster Diner and Pied Piper of London.

I was a bit of a Reluctant Reader myself when I was at school and so I like to think I know what would interest and entertain such readers. Since working at Waterstones I can’t remember reading anything which wasn’t a book aimed at children or young adults (which isn’t a bad thing).’
