About the author
Lisa Wells was diagnosed with terminal bowel and liver cancer in December 2O17. Determined to leave a legacy of love for five-year-old Ava-Lily and ten-month-old Saffia, she created Lisa's Army UK - a team of loved ones who will help support her husband Dan and the girls in a future Lisa won't live to see. Lisa has raised over £ 83k for charity and won Hello! Magazine's Star Mum Award. Only One of Me began as Lisa's love letter to her daughters. She hopes its publication will bring comfort to your family too. Tim Budgen was born in Surrey in 1977 and is a freelance illustrator. For much of his life he has been scribbling down ideas and can usually be found with a pencil in one hand and a sketchbook in the other. Tim lives with his wife by the sea on Hayling Island with their pets Baxter and Alfie. Michelle Robinson lives a few streets away from co-author Lisa in Frome, Somerset. Meeting and working with Lisa has been the highlight of Michelle's career to date - even topping the time Tim Peake read her book Goodnight Spaceman to Earth from space. Michelle's many other books include Ten Fat Sausages, How To Wash a Woolly Mammoth and Tooth Fairy In Training.
