Emma Warner-Reed

Emma Warner-Reed is a qualified lawyer, academic and legal journalist (that's the boring bit). She is also and award-winning children's author (that's the interesting bit!).

Emma lives in a rural setting on the edge of the Yorkshire Dales with her husband, four small children and a plethora of animals, some of whom are more domesticated than others!

To date the first book in the award-winning DOTTY series, DOTTY and the Calendar House Key, released in 2015, has received significant acclaim. The book was awarded the Literary Classics Silver Award for children's fantasy fiction, has an exclusively five star rating on both Amazon.com and Amazon.co.uk and five star Reader's Favorites review. It also gained the official Seal of Approval from Literary Classics. In addition, the book received Honourable Mentions at the Los Angeles, New York, Amsterdam and Paris Book Festival Awards. So it's quite good :o)

The second novel in The DOTTY Series, DOTTY and the Chimney Thief, has also recently been awarded gold by Literary Classics in its category, and most recently a Silver Award from Reader's Favorite in the pre-teen category.
