Macmillan Children’s Books has acquired two picture books from Mo O’Hara, author of the Big Fat Zombie Goldfish series.
The first picture book, as yet untitled, is an adventure story about a fish and will publish in summer 2015. It will be illustrated by Marek Jagucki.
The second picture book, titled More People to Love Me, is about a boy and his large family and will hit the shelves in 2016.
Suzanne Carnell, publishing director for picture books and pre-school, said: “We are thrilled and delighted that Mo will be joining the Macmillan picture book list, following the success of her fiction books. Mo writes with a warmth and humour and to be able to bring that talent to younger readers and build her brand is a fantastic opportunity.”
