Poppy's first published book - the bestselling 25 Days 'Til Christmas - has been translated into several languages and optioned for TV.

Poppy Alexander wrote her first book when she was five. There was a long gap in her writing career while she was at school, and after studying classical music at university, she decided the world of music was better off without her and returned to writing instead. She takes an anthropological interest in family, friends and life in her West Sussex village (think, The Archers crossed with Twin Peaks) where she lives with her husband, children and various other pets.

She is generally lurking on social media so search for @SarahWaights on Twitter, and @PoppyAlexanderBooks on Instagram and Facebook.

“There is that poem. Scott Holland, I think. How does it go? ‘I have only slipped away into the next room’…or something. Yes. ‘I have only slipped away into the next room. I am I and you are you. Whatever we were to each other, that we are still.”
Poppy Alexander, The Littlest Library

“Sarcasm is the lowest form of wit,”
Poppy Alexander, The Littlest Library

“There was a book to cure ever ill and solve every problem that was what Mimi had always thought. It was like a tiny sanctuary providing a balm for all of life’s challenges.”
