Philip Ardagh (Author)
About
When not writing silly books, Philip Ardagh is very serious indeed and frowns a great deal. He also sports a pair of those little round glasses that brainy people often wear. He is best known for the bestselling Eddie Dickens Trilogy, beginning with Awful End. The Fall of Fergal is the first of his new Unlikely Exploits series. He probably lies awake at night thinking: 'Why does no one take me seriously?' His wife is a Doctor of Philosophy, which means that she's far cleverer than he is, but he's bigger than her. So there.
