Something Invisible

Siobhán Parkinson is one of Ireland's leading authors for children and teenagers, and she has won numerous awards for her writing. Her books have been translated into many languages, from Danish to Thai - even ones where they translate your name as well as your book, so somewhere in Central Europe are books by a person called Šivena Parkinsona. She is joint editor of Bookbird, an international journal on children's literature, and when she is not writing stories or pretending to be Šivena Parkinsona, she visits schools and works with children on their writing projects. Siobhán lives in Dublin with her husband and grown-up son.
