Born and raised in Leicester, Dave now lives in Suffolk with a brilliant woman, a beautiful girl, a bonkers dog and an inexcusable cat.
He is the author/illustrator of the middle grade fiction series Emily Lime: Librarian Detective, and creator of the slapstick comedy noir comic strip Good Dog, Bad Dog, as seen in the DFC, Guardian and The Phoenix.
His debut prose novel for children, A Boy and a Bear in a Boat, which he also illustrated, was shortlisted for the Costa Children's Book Award and the Carnegie Medal, and won the Branford Boase Award.
He is fond of cake.
