Yasmin and Yo-Yo are two naughty squirrels. One day in late summer they see a beautiful apple tree that's laden with juicy apples, just perfect for their winter food store. They set out with their basket to pick them all when something rather mysterious happens...
Diana Vickery lives in the New Forest with her husband, five cats and a vast amount of wildlife that visits, day and night.
It is the wildlife that really inspires her work and being able to read her stories to her grandchildren is a real motivation.
Diana is the author of a collection of over thirty picture books (published and forthcoming), and the creator of the wonderful ‘Magical World of Swankypants’ picture book series, published by Swankypants Books.
