About the author

Sam Gayton

Sam Gayton lives in Margate. In 2009 he completed the Writing for Young People MA at Bath Spa University and not long after published his first book, The Snow Merchant. He loves American novels, Italian food and the English countryside. When he's not writing, he likes playing old board games, strumming his guitar and joining as many rock bands as possible (currently at seven).

Praise for Lilliput

Spirited and clever tribute to the original

Sally Morris, Daily Mail

Unlimited storytelling inventiveness . . . Swift himself would have approved.

Robert Dunbar, Irish Times

Sam Gayton brings a lively cast — including a boy rescuer, a chatty parrot and a kind chocolate-shop owner — to the appealing scenario of a tiny person in a giant world.

Nicolette Jones, Sunday Times

Lovely old-fashioned storytelling… this beautifully illustrated book will appeal widely

Louise Haines, Guardian

Exuberant and imaginative use of language, page-turningly exciting... A very covetable book.
